Navidrome rules. Made the switch from Spotify some time ago, using the FOSS Tempo app on Android and Feishin on desktop, it's been a lovely experience so far.

Read as many diverse books on the subject, anything you can find, from Rich Dad Poor Dad to Intelligent Investor.

Then, after you think you know enough, read A Random Walk Down Wall Street by Malkiel, and eventually you'll end up at the Bogleheads wiki and forum.
