Soooooo

I want to get rid of my Spotify because the apps suck baaaadly. However, I have about 6000 something liked songs

How would I go about getting those off of Spotify and do some self hosting?

So if I’m not mistaken the route I took was to import my Spotify library to Lidarr > Let it freely torrent/download in the background (this can take a long time especially if what you’re torrenting isn’t very popular!) > setup the Spotify Import plugin for Jellyfin and let that automatically make your playlist an such however, in my experience this worked well for maybe 40% of my playlists (roughly 800 rap songs + 200 rock/metal) and the rest I downloaded with ytdlp and manually added in to my library, which sucked because it was so tedious but once I got it done I never had to do it again.

I got about 15k songs in my library all together but only listen to my playlists.

Go into your Spotify settings and request data. You'll be able to download all the info from your account including playlists. That's your first step. Now find your files. Go from there

I'm on the path to better systems than this, but as I'm too time poor, I gotta go with apps, and I just thought you might like to know I had as many songs in my Spotify Playlists and ported them over to Qobuz in seconds, if you want something quick for now. Qobuz talks you through it.
