hi there
first of all, wow this is amazing 👍
one of the most functional web-based music clients out there.

now to be blunt, i been on a mission to create a spotify like project for some time now, and while i understand that koel is a "personal" media server, why not make it a bit more
i am not saying recreate the wheel and start introducing new features, just check out https://github.com/ampache/ampache

radio, podcasts, discovery, top lists, transcoding...etc etc
its all there, if we can rely on ampache backend for features and koel for front end clients it would be the perfect combo
+
any hope for mobile clients maybe ? 🙏

No, Koel doesn't aim to support the features Ampache does. The Ampache topic has been discussed several times before btw. In short, I intend to keep Koel simple and small.
Regarding mobile client: yes, I will do one when I have time.
