I have the same problem with navidrome so I've written a new Opensubsonic server in Rust with a permision model. You can check it out here: https://github.com/vnghia/nghe

Not sure what do you mean by filtering but this is my Symfonium UI

In the opensubsonic response there will be two fields for artist, one is artistid with only one artist (this is for compatible with old subsonic) and the other is artists with a list of artist ids. The server only sends back the list of artists ids and only these two clients read that field.

Thank you very much for your kind word! I've seen that scanner already but decided to reimplement anyway because I want to choose a different design from the start and have the flexibility to add some new features myself (some kind of ML integration like immich and S3 integration). At worse case, I will still use this so no problems :D

Is Rust that much better than Go?

IMHO, rust and go are two differents things. The reason I choose Rust is because it is fast and calling C code from rust is supported really well since Rust's goal is to become a system language. Navidrome is just calling the ffmpeg binary. While in my project, I've compiled the neccessary parts of ffmpeg myself (thanks to vcpkg) and call the function directly from Rust. It leads to smaller and fully static final binary (because no ffmpeg bin) as well as faster transcoding time since we don't have to wait for the ffmpeg binary to finish transcoding the whole file before load the result from the filesystem to the memory.

Would it have been impossible to submit your changes to Navidrome as pull requests?

You can see here. This is the biggest reason why I've decided to start my own implementation. Beside, I share my server with several friends so I want a mechanism to prevent mixing musics from different people.

Does this import the Navidrome database?

This could be a feature request in the future. I could add a python script to import users/songs/playlists/playcount/etc from Navidrome.

I see. Indeen I gave up teaching people pronounce my name correctly long time ago and told them just to call me by my family name so you coulld pronounce whatever you like. If you know a Vietnamese guy around just ask them to teach you and give them a headache

Never thought about it. Is there an inside joke am i missing @@

I usually try different custom ROMs and have to format my phone frequently. Will that eSIM survive that format or not ?

How do you keep your Spotify recommendations update ? Don't you have to listen to songs on it to get updated recommendations ?

I actually need more than merging. For example, right now my traefik.template will look like this:

[http.routers.{{ router_name }}]
  rule = "{{ router_rule }}"
  service = "{{ service_name }}"
  middlewares = [{{ middlewares | map("tojson") | join(", ") }}]
{% block router %}{% endblock %}
  [http.routers.{{ router_name }}.tls]
    certResolver = "leresolver_http"

{% if service_host is defined %}
[[http.services.{{ service_name }}.loadBalancer.servers]]
  url = "{{ 'https' if service_use_https is defined else 'http' }}://{{ service_host }}{{ ':' ~ service_port if service_port is defined else '' }}"
{% endif %}

and then one of my traefik.toml could look like this

{% extends "template/traefik.jinja" %}

{% set router_name = "dozzle" %}
{% set router_rule = "Host(`dozzle.example.com`)" %}
{% set service_name = "dozzle" %}
{% set service_host = "dozzle" %}
{% set service_port = 8080 %}

Not really for ventoy but have you heard about medicat ? I have bookmarked it for sometime now but never had a chance to try.

Edit: medicat also supports ventoy
