Show HN: Kumanote – a Navidrome-first Subsonic music player for Android

I've been self hosting my music with Navidrome for a couple of years now, and I had yet to find a mobile client that fits me well. Either the track-listening was neglected, the album-listening experience was sub-par, or both. The apps that did work fairly well was trying to do it all, which made them the master of none.

So a couple of months ago I started building Kumanote, and today I feel that it is ready for self hosting music listeners out there!

The philosophy of the app will always revolve around these tree things:

* Smooth and efficient. Your device should feel cold to the touch when using the app, both in foreground and background. All while your device never skips a frame.

* The music and user experience is incredibly important. You'll notice this when trying Kumanote out.

* Do less, and do those things well. Kumanote will never try to please everyone out there. That's how other apps became "do it all" music listening apps.

I hope you'll give Kumanote a try! I'm certain that you'd love it. If not, I'd like to hear about it in the comments.

Thank you!
