What, like Pandora, Spotify, etc is out there that I could add music I have on my phone/etc? (lemmy.world)

I've been using one of the Pandora services, but I've been getting a little annoyed with the stations (which I presume I would get the same annoyance from other services, too). So I'd like to be able to create a station and add songs that I own and that wouldn't normally be in that station. (And I know you can add artists to the stations, but some artists only have a few songs I like, and I surely don't want the station inundated with similar artists of the music I don't like. Shudder the thought, 😬 ).

I see, well if you're more in the self-hosted side of things other people have given some suggestions that seem like it would work well for your needs.

I used to have a huge collection of music I'd accumulated and only played files locally, but I've gotten lazy over the years and am a Spotify boy now. I will say that it's been irritating me to no end with how bad shuffle is; my main playlist has over 500 songs in it and I know there's at least a hundred or so that I haven't heard in months because Spotify's "shuffle" thinks it knows what I want to listen to more than I do.
