Having a way to access a list of your genres would be tremendously useful. I know Navidrome doesn't have a top-level Genres view in the web interface, but it does have an OpenSubsonic 'getGenres' API endpoint, while Jellyfin has its own '/Genres' API endpoint. While the main genres page would just give you a list of all your genres, clicking onto a specific genre could be implemented a couple of different ways. Jellyfin, for example, just gives a grid of all of the albums in that genre.

However, clients like Symfonium will list the top tracks, albums, and artists for that genre.
Symfonium's view of 'Trip Hop'
I like Symfonium's approach, but I wonder if structuring the request could be a little cumbersome, since it'd might require calling the separate endpoints for Artists/Albums/Tracks and filtering based on the given genre, but I'm not super familiar with either API. On the plus side, with that approach it seems like some of the scaffolding for the Home page could potentially be re-used on the genre page.
