is there any selfhosted music server/library solution that supports
syncplay/listen together with multiple users? I'm currently using
navidrome, and that doesn't have this option for sure. The use case
would be so that multiple people can skip/pause the song while
listening to it in sync, over the network without downloading my
library. We've done it so that I usually stream my music player
(foobar2000) to them on discord, but it's getting unusable with
discord bitrate etc.

The only option I seem to have is using Jellyfin, but it's awful from
my personal experience to use for large music libraries. No replay
gain, search is bugged, sometime tags won't read... it's bad.

​

TL;DR something where i can host my music library and everyone can
listen to the same song with shared controls, on multiple platforms

Logitech Media Server (LMS) can synchronise play to multiple players.
And there's a java based everyone can use to play streams.

Related to your navidrome comment - the jukebox mode was recently
released. Check the issues queue and make sure you have the latest
code. It may well help you on this.

\> java based
no sir, java isn't based, not at all

Well maybe that's very old-school but why don't you run a streaming
server like it was done before the idea of sync play existed?
