I posted this over at https://discuss.tchncs.de/c/navidrome, but I thought I’d post it here, maybe someone has had experience with this.

As with anything entering or exiting my network, I am cautious and curious why my instance of Navidrome has the need to contact demo.navidrome.org.
I am running Navidrome as a Docker Instance. I have combed my compose file and can find nothing in that itself that would trigger Navidrome to ‘call home’.
Is this for stats, or other? As of right now, I have demo.navidrome.org blocked until I’ve gathered some information.
BTW, sweet piece of opensource software. I tip my hat to the dev team(s).
