CLUSTER MUSIC-HOSTED-SERVER · 57 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-09-19
Self-hosted music streaming
The cluster consists of self-hosted music streaming servers and clients that let users manage, browse, and play their own audio libraries from personal hardware. Entry counts show a sparse but steady trickle of new projects from 2009 through 2026, with a handful of months in 2025–2026 recording two to four entries. Among tracked members, musik-mobile has the strongest traction signal at 4 stars, while ampache and ytmdl trail at 0 and 1 stars respectively.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
