Thanks for mentioning all the software you use. I just started filling up my library for navidrome and haven’t gotten to plugins yet. Spindle looks very good.
Ratings wouldn’t work for me, because I listen to completely different music at different times of the day. I can’t stand loud, aggressive music in the morning so I listen to Jazz/Soul/Instrumental Hip Hop beats/Classic Piano. At noon I would be bored by the music I listen to in the morning, time for Hardcore/Punk/Japanese Metal/Hyperpop/DnB/anything goes. A noon song would receive 1 star in the morning and vise versa.

that was something i had trouble with at first also. the way i squared this in my mind is the rating system is valuable in the context of the genre/mood
that way if i am feeling heavy stuff, but don’t want to have to sift through tracks that are gimmicky -silence- or interludes between real tracks, i can just base it off of the rating
{ "all": [ { "contains": { "genre": "core" } }, { "notContains": { "title": "silence" } }, { "notContains": { "title": "instrumental" } }, { "notContains": { "title": "live" } }, { "notContains": { "title": "piano version" } }, { "notContains": { "title": "acoustic" } }, { "inTheRange": { "rating": [ 3, 5 ] } }, { "any": [ { "contains": { "genre": "metal" } }, { "contains": { "genre": "heavy" } } ] } ], "limit": 100, "sort": "+random,+lastplayed" }
