Hello!

This question is mainly directed to people who use navidrome or similar software. How do you organize your music library in regards to files? Do you keep them all in one folder? Or folders with author names? Or folders where music belongs based on genre? I can’t get the right way to organize my music library, hence this question.

Thanks in advance for all the answers!

    Music folder > Artist name > Album Name > Numbered tracks.

    Since all the files contain metadata, any music player I use can automatically sort my collection however I like.

    Honestly, keeping the actual folder structure simple is more than enough. You aren’t playing tracks from the file manager.
