I see that when people ask for music servers, people frequently suggest Navidrome or mpd/mopidy. I haven’t tried either. I’m just using Jellyfin as an all-in-one. I’m wondering why do people choose to use a dedicated music server over an all-in-one like Jellyfin?

Is the extra overhead worth it?

    I used jellyfin for music before but i dont like finamp that much, the UI a bit stuttery. Plus, im trying to cut down which services is exposed. I went with navidrome after that but i dread of exposing another service to the internet.

    Now, im using nextcloud music with tempo since im already exposing NC, just a single service for all my needs. I dont have many music so it fit my need at the moment.
