Talk:Subsonic

Unless someone can offer a good enough reason not to, I think this page should change focus to Airsonic, the FOSS fork of Subsonic. Arch obviously isn't a strictly FOSS distribution, but it would be better to advocate the use of FOSS primarily / first, then mention the proprietary version available.

Subsonic development dropped off a cliff in 2017, with the last minor release being version 6.1 in May 2017. Airsonic appears to be much more active. I support this change. Ichimonji10 (talk) 19:53, 11 August 2019 (UTC) Reply

I also agree. (FWIW Libresonic has also ceased development.) — Ostiensis (talk) 21:39, 11 August 2019 (UTC) Reply

There are also several FOSS servers compatible with OpenSubsonic, the community "formal" Subsonic API specification. Some are at least as popular in the general Linux community as Airsonic - eg Navidrome, which is in extra (not AUR) - and bear mentioning as options. Serxxx (talk) 03:46, 2 February 2026 (UTC) Reply

Sublime Music is no longer maintained, and the author themself recommends Supersonic. I suggest removing SM altogether and adding

5.x Supersonic
