I guess teaching people how to drag-and-drop audio files onto their phone and open them with VLC would be a much shorter article.
It would be a consistently worse experience going forwards, which I think is the point. A little effort up front (and fun, probably, if you’re into this sort of thing) for a more convenient user experience (and probably extra satisfaction as well) is the reason people do this sort of thing, is it not? Sure, compared to some things you can do with self hosting, it’s not going to be life-changing. But, worth the effort for some. I’m taking notes from this thread as it’s probably the next thing on my to do list.
