Navidrome: [Feature Request] Social music, users listening activity and history, follow playlists, temp share with link

Created on 7 Jul 2020 · 2Comments · Source: deluan/navidrome

There could be a User section on the sidebar with the list of users on the server, what they are listening to and their public playlists. We can then follow (easily access) that playlist in the future. As a server admin, I could see which artist is more popular and buy more of similar songs/albums, etc and manually delete songs we just didn't listen/didn't care for or something. This would make listening to music more social on a self-hosted platform :D

Most of my friends complaints about self hosted is the lack of social features. I agree to some extend that this (or some of it) would be awesome :D

For legal purposes, a user is a household member.

[ ] Ability to share a song, an album or an artist using a link to a guest, with option for expiration date and transcoding (ie: expires in 7 days, transcode to mp3 128kbps) - Not sure if copyright laws would allow that, but I find myself sending a mp3 to my friend from time to time so we can discus the music style and he decide if he buy the album or not. (I don't use Youtube much)
[ ] Ability to follow another user's playlist - or - star/fav a public playlist for easy access/put it at the top of shared/public playlists
[ ] See what other users are listening to
[ ] Listen along - ability to listen to the same thing as another user (boyfriend/wife/etc)
[ ] See listening history
[ ] See other users listening history
[ ] Follow an artist so we get a notification when more songs of that artist are added
[ ] Wishlist, users would be allowed to add a Discogs link for example to an artist or an album they like
[ ] Most played songs/artists across users on the server ( @mattbk )

As part of this, some sort of global "most played" list across users would be interesting.

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I'm planning to add most of these features in the upcoming releases. Will provide more details here when I start to work on these.
