Electricy prices have been growing lately, HDDs and other hardware require replacing, upgrading and even without those reasons some of you might have thought that it'd be nice to have your music collection with you anywhere.
Here's one ways to do it: Get a Hetzner StorageBox for around $4/month for 1TB, $11/month for 5TB, get an Always Free Oracle VPS server, Mount that storage to your server, install Ubuntu, MinimServer, BubbleUPnP server on it.

Install BubbleUpnP on your phone, connect to BubbleUPnp server through it and that's it. You can play and stream it to other devices anywhere.

Not really. Roon requires 8GB of RAM and free x86_64 servers have only two. I'm using free ones on arm64 and they have 12GB, but I see no options of Roon for ARM downloads.
Sure, one can subscribe for Roon and pay for a server. One can hire an assistant to carry a backpack full of HDDs around. Sure, there are a lot of options if don't mind spending more.
