From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Ad others have said, nextcloud won't rescan or reindex on a reboot. no idea why sync thing does, and surely there must be some way to disable that, too. I'm still hesitant to recommend NC as it's somewhat fragile, needs way more babying than I'm willing to keep up with and just does too many things, none of them anywhere close to "well". File sync on real computers works solidly if you have a reliable connection (don't get me started on Android).
Have you considered using a real media-hoster, like Jellyfin (or like a dozen others)? Jellyfin works fine for music (the are other music-only solutions though). There are plenty of clients that can stream, and have offline support (download a subset/albums/playlists) for things like laptops, phones, ... The server can usually transcode audio formats that a client can't play, in real-time, if needed.
Edit: I realize I wasn't clear as to what this means in practice. You essentially get a self-hosted Spotify. Your library, run from your server, optionally you can connect to it from anywhere.
