This looks very nice, I love that you're making a real solution to avoid the dark patterns of companies like Spotify. I used Subsonic for a while as a simple way to curate music for kids and keep them off Spotify, but eventually my oldest got past the "listen to the same album over and over again" stage, and adding everything to Subsonic became a chore, so we succumbed to giving her an account. Yet I really don't like how Spotify has been adding direct messaging, Wrapped, Jams, discovery etc. – stuff that on the face of it looks fun (for adults), but when you see the addictive effect it has on the tweens it's just horrible. Technically I guess Spotify is now illegal for <16yo's in Australia.
For my youngest, I installed Qobuz, which has all the music, but much fewer features. They reportedly pay artists more per stream than any of the other apps (I guess because they don't have so many expenses for social media app development). Your app UI looks much cleaner though :)
