This is great! I used to run a Subsonic server for myself but it kind of fell apart because the licensing in version 6 kind of broke the community around it.

But it looks like this supports the same Subsonic protocol, which is pretty great. It's cool to not only take inspiration from predecessors but to also support and build on the same ecosystem.

Airsonic is what I went for after the licensing woes, recommended if you liked the server-side UI and want to keep the old data.

If you think you won't miss accessing your tracks by directory, navidrome (written in go) has a smaller footprint and is quite actively developed (but the web UI is rather awkward)

But does it work? My airsonic install consistently fails to play the next track at my work computer using the browser client.

I can recommend Navidrome on yunohost; Airsonic install kept breaking for me.
