I currently use spotify with modifications with adblockers. I know this is not the best setup and I would want to have atleast a better one

Take this one step farther with Navidrome and steam your music from your home server.
This is what I do too. And the clients dsub, and ultrasonic for android are great players.
Does your isp give you a static IP address? Mine gives me a dynamic one that is at the same time shared between multiple users.
They give me a static one, but I still use a free domain name with letsencrypt, to access it. So navidrome is running at a domain name, and my phone music player connects to it.
Yep. Those are the best. I switch between them
I would have a home Server but electricity is expensive, kinda off the table
You could rent a vps and install it there. That might be cheaper. I had a pretty weak one for a while for navidrome.
@fluffery you can get a gym device that also produces energy when you work out on it. Solar panels on the roof or a mini wind turbine if you live in a house.
