There are plenty of interesting apps for your media server and after using or trying nearly all of them, I felt like we needed a wiki.
All services are supported on Windows, macOS, Linux, and Docker unless otherwise noted.
You will notice some items on this list have a 🌟 next to them. Items with a 🌟 represent the author's top pick for that category. This is an entirely opinionated rating from someone who doesn't know everything about every item on the list, so be sure to check out alternative options before assuming something is "the best". That said, I do explore and test every resource I add to this list wherever possible.
If you have any idea of changes to make this more readable or to add new apps, don't hesitate to contact me on [email protected]
