Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April (www.plex.tv)

Ahoy mateys, it's time to setup Jellyfin if you prefer not to pay for the privilege of self-hosting your own content.

We are also changing how remote playback works for streaming personal media (that is, playback when not on the same local network as the server). The reality is that we need more resources to continue putting forth the best personal media experience, and as a result, we will no longer offer remote playback as a free feature. This—alongside the new Plex Pass pricing—will help provide those resources. This change will apply to the future release of our new Plex experience for mobile and other platforms.

I deleted Plex from my barely functional home server.

I'll give Jellyfin a try. I just want to be able to access my music away from home

Use Finamp for offline Music from Jellyfin

I prefer Symfonium

As in, symfonium.app? If so, seems questionable, given its proprietary nature and unavailability outside the play store. Although, the feature set is interesting.

Edit: yeeeah, no

From their FAQ:

licences checks requires a call to the verification server from time to time

The license is tied to your Google account

Correction. Use the finamp beta version, unless that recently made it out of beta.
