  • My recent improved flow is:

    1. Put my new music in a ‘import’ folder
    2. Run a beets container and tell it to import from the ‘import’ folder to my ‘music’ folder (beets tags all music with prompts before moving to my final music folder ofc).
    3. Jellyfin (which already has a music library set up and pointing to my ‘music’ folder) automatically refreshes after a few seconds.
    4. Listen and enjoy through jellyfin app/site OR through finamp (on android).

    The best part is you can rip your music into the ‘import’ folder, or torrent, or get it direct from youtube. Thanks to the modularity provided with this setup, it doesn’t matter.







  • completely useless to anyone else

    If you ever get to the point of needing to ask for direction online, always assume it will help someone else, even if it is only 1 other person 10 years later.

    It’s just the right thing to do, otherwise it feels like you just want to serve yourself and deleting your post afterwards is kinda saying “only I deserve this information.”

    From my own experience, there have been many times where a post somewhere online with barely any interaction has helped me. If that post was deleted before I got a chance to see it then there’s two paths I see:

    1. I never understood a problem and had to give up, or:
    2. I found a newer post that someone made on the exact same problem where they or someone else spends another X amount of time trying to solve it.

    The more answers to dumb questions online, the better.
