Emoji Definitions

  • ✔️ means yes, it is supported
  • ❌ means no, it is not supported
  • 💲 means the service/feature has a price p where p>0
  • ❔ means help wanted, original author wasn't sure or couldn't judge the covered topic.
  • ⚪ means the feature doesn't apply to this service and cannot be evaluated.
  • an empty cell is missing information. It is not intentionally left blank.

How to Contribute (WIP)

  • work in an editor that supports no forced line breaks (word wrap), otherwise you can't read the raw markdown table. VSCodium, Atom, Notepad++, Kate and others are suitable for raw markdown editing.

  • work in an editor that supports some sort of WYSIWYG like Obsidian or Typora otherwise it is a real mess to fill a markdown table. Typora can clean the final raw markdown table as well, and so can Obsidian with the Advanced Tables plugin.

  • To add a service it is always good to take the current version of the table to match the columns. I'll try to merge all PRs in a timely manner.

  • open issue or a PR

Noteworthy

Music Assistant is useful in order to connect streaming services with speakers.

Multi-Scrobbler is a docker application that consolidates your listening activity across applications and can scrobble to multiple services.

Selfhosted Photos

To get an overview of selfhosted photo libraries please visit foss_photo_libraries. I just found it and thought I should share it since it provides a nive overview and is similar to this project but for photos instead of music.
