trickle VS gonic

This method could apply to other tools with the same IPv4/IPv6 behaviour, without further modification. Changing the behaviour in the utility directly would only fix it for that one utility meaning that to fix another you need to do the same work again. It is perhaps also safer than modifying such a core component as SSH: if you introduce a bug the trick can be easily disabled until fixed, if you accidentally break SSH you might cause yourself significantly more hassle.

> This sort of negates that advantage

LD_PRELOAD trickery doesn't negate the advantage of having full source access, patching SSH would also have been a perfectly valid option, but is perhaps a better tool for this particular job.

For another use of the trick see https://github.com/mariusae/trickle (the project looks stale, though that may be because it is properly done and there have been no security/other bugs to fix in recent history) which slips its own functions in the call chain to apply user controlled (rather than firewall/routing level) throughput shaping to utilities that don't offer it out of the box.

Have you tried Trickle?

Assuming you're on Linux you could use something like Trickle: https://github.com/mariusae/trickle

install trickle

Gonic seems to be the most active fork of Subsonic that supports browsing via folders, but there's no Windows support. I'm considering running it via Docker on my Windows server but haven't had a chance to look into the pros/cons of that. Curious if anyone here can shed some light on this for me

I've always thought of that one to be more useful when e.g. using gonic, which comes with out a web interface (and seems pretty awesome overall, although I have never tried it myself since I'm quite happy with Navidrome).

Just wanted to give quick plug for my music player app Supersonic! It's a client for Subsonic API-compatible servers, so it handles the UI and playback while the server (Gonic or LMS would be good lightweight choices for localhost-only setup) handles the library management/metadata indexing. It's a quite young project but I have lots of plans for continued improvement and new features (and would gladly accept contributions)!

In the past I've used Airsonic, Gonic, Plex, and Jellyfin. Just for a bit o' variety

i would say it's a bit experimental, but you could try gonic (subsonic jukebox mode) + snapcast
