I have 49 gb of music and at the moment i just sync it between my devices with syncthing. But i think it will be better if i stream it, as the storage on my phone is limited.

Which streaming server do you recommend?

I saw nextcloud music, but i have the feeling it's half backed and it will just clog my nextcloud install. Or supysonic? Ampache?

for album art malp honour the one embedded in id3 tags

MALP and myMPD both honor the ID3-embedded art. yes, and I believe those take precedence over pulling from a remote API.

A lot of my music is old CD rips without any embedded images, and the ones that do have them are often incorrect from trying to embed them a long time ago. (e.g. half my music from the late 90s all have Silverchair's Freak Show album cover as the embedded artwork)

TBH, I don't really pay attention to the album art that much. I've lived without it long enough, so for me, it's nice when it works and is correct, but I don't really sweat it if not.
