Hello based people of lemmy,

I have recently started trying out BSDs as an alternative to Linux and found out that Spotify isn’t supported. Before you say try it in a browser this doesn’t work as spotify has DRM that doesn’t work on BSD OSes.

Now is there a way to stream music similar to Spotify? I know there is a downloader program available.

Furthermore do you know what self-hosted options are available? I already have a basic *arr stack and am always up for convoluted server and Linux hijinks.

    I know how docker and lxc work and the difference between them and chroots. But you’re talking about persistence of changes breaking things. You are right that chroot only operates on the VFS namespace. Jails are the kind of isolation you are after, and in fact were in FreeBSD before containerization was even a word.

    Things like remapping user IDs start to pervert the line between userspace and what the kernel gives a shit about. Linux containerization technologies are many things, but elegant they are not.

      You can run a Linux Jail/Container in FreeNAS, right?

      I am aware jails exist, I had bastille installed before I bricked my system to play with.

        The same as you can in regular FreeBSD, under a bhyve VM running Linux. You can also use the linux ABI in a jail.
