This self-hosted app gives me Spotify Premium without a subscription
Jan 16, 2026 | Guides
I’ve been on a little bit of a self-hosting kick since last year. It started with a simple self-hosted replacement for Trello, but ever since, I’ve been trying to replace my everyday apps with self-hosted alternatives. It recently hit me that I’m paying for Spotify Premium, but I rarely ever open the app because I don’t like the recommendations Spotify serves me. Most of the time, I just listen to the music I have saved on my phone. So I spent the last few days looking for an app to stream my small music collection. It took some trial and error, but I found one that I’m pleased with. Here’s how I self-hosted a Spotify-like app for my music library.
