+1 for navidrome. I’ve had better luck with the play:Sub app (iOS).

I think it’s important that these servers use a common API (subsonic), but it seems like the slickest apps are always targeted to one specific backend (plexamp, finamp, prism music).

I have heard so many different definitions for the 3-2-1 rule, I have no idea which is correct anymore.

It seems that you should have 3 copies -- 1 being offsite.

But the 2 I have heard the 2 as 2 formats, 2 devices, 2 mediums, 2 storage types, 2 technologies.

I don't think the idea of 2 is reasonable for anyone except the most hardcore. Am I really expected to buy a tape for my local personal backups?

I think this rule could be updated to something 2 different cloud providers. Or 2 different geographic regions. Drop the 3 and the 1.
