I wish I could have such app to stream music from my NAS. This is very nice though!

I use Plex because I already have it in use, though only on mobile/Windows. With real computers, I just mount the music volume and use mpd. Both work pretty well through a VPN too.

Ah... installation "wizards"...

Looks like the "sqlite-e2e" is for integration-test only.

I really need something like this for video. Basically a simple website for kids where they can select from pre-approved youtube accounts/videos or upload additional conten. Anyone building sth like this?

It looks like PeerTube can automatically import videos from YouTube channels.

https://docs.joinpeertube.org/use/channel-sync

And as for letting you or your kids upload additional content, yup that’s what PeerTube is mainly for.

I run a PeerTube instance of my own to host some videos I made. I haven’t tried importing from YouTube to it though. I use yt-dlp to download videos I want to keep.

Interesting, I wouldn't consider another DB driver for integration tests if that isn't usable in production. Probably a good reason for it but can anyone clarify why that's done?
