For those who selfhost their music services, what are your must have plugins for beets and/or Musicbrainz (self.selfhosted)

I’m curious what plugins people like the most and find the most useful.

I may not understand your question, but I use Jellyfin as the backend for my music collection. It draws metadata from MusicBrainz and passes my listen stats to ListenBrainz. I believe that those plugins are in Jellyfin’s default repository.

Right now I’m bouncing between OSs, but on Windows my CD ripper (EAC) draws metadata from MusicBrainz as well. On Linux I’ve been using K3B as a ripper which still works (nearly 20 years after I first discovered it!), but oddly for KDE software, is not as configurable as I would like. I believe it also draws metadata from MusicBrainz.

I use JF and tag my music with the MB ID too. Not what I’m asking.

I want to know if ppl use the playlist auto-generator plugins, lyrics plugin or others to enhance their experience.

I tag my music with Picard and then generate playlists for mpd and my phone with beets smartplaylist plugin. I'm not selfhosting though
