  • Yeah, about 72TB if I find a sale

  • No, I'm complaining about people who act like Jellyfin is a drop in replacement while ignoring everything that would make it harder to user than Plex. I like Jellyfin and I would like nothing better than to have it as my disposal should POlex actually turn evil one day. But the current state is just not feasible if you want a seamless transition.

    I live in a country with a very active and litigious copyright lawyer scene, so I will not take the risk of my server exposing the contents of my library, even if that is a minor risk.

    When I can run Jellyfin and expose it through a subdomain, I will. But the devs have made it clear that that won't be anytime soon, since they would rather have an insecure app than break compatibility with clients

  • And if you can wipe the foam from your mouth for a second, you'll notice I wrote 'software' not network.

    But in the end all you're here for is a pad on the back from the Jellyfin guys for "seeing the light". So you do you and maybe I won't have to read more of you Plex posts, since you're now in happy Jellyfin land

  • But somehow it's still Plex's fault

  • And I would suggest learning how to configure your software before coming here and stirring shit. But we can't always get what we want

  • So instead of a service that works, I now have:

    • an inferior (and incomplete) client experience, unless I spend money
    • an additional device to allow the client to connect to Jellyfin, because I can't safely expose it to the internet
    • the responsibility to keep all that additional stuff working for myself and everyone of my friends/family members

    sounds like a great deal

  • It's also always the Jellyfin fans that get emotional about this. Liking Plex is like a cardinal sin to them and I should be happy to migrate my entire viewership to a new solutions that requires them to install a vpn client on their device.

    Every post I see here about Plex is some variation of Gotcha! or Schadenfreude where they expect everyone to say, "oh no, guess I'll pack it up and start fresh"

  • If you don't set it to host, the docker container is in a different ip range than your tv. That's why it assumes it's not in the same network (which it isn't)

  • Sounds like a feature, not a bug

  • Really surprised that noone has gone and poured some sugar in them yet. The us discourse is so violence centered, with people claiming what they think is an adequate response to an infringement of their rights, but when push comes to shove nothing happens.

  • Someone watched Mortal Engines one time too many. But seriously, this looks cool

  • It's nothing that drastic, maybe I just find it hard to differentiate between natural change over time and stuff I pretended to have changed to better fit in

  • Yeah, never thought if it like that. I always kinda felt like I lost something, that I conformed rather than maybe just bettering myself.

    The version I present nowadays usually is better socially adapted and better able to integrate itself into a conversation than how I behaved maybe ten years ago

  • On the flip side, other people seem to like the version of myself that I currently project

    I know that feeling too well. I honestly can no longer tell when I have started doing that or how much of it was originally there

  • It does not, because demonetized content is also no longer pushed by the algorithm. Since the right wing stuff still gets pushed to the front page and recommendations, it probably did not get demonetized

  • I feel like the issue people her take with this is rather "great, even more Nazi content" than "I want censorship". YouTube already has an issue with demonetizing content it deems risky for its ad business, like curse words or the mention of violence while allowing inflammatory content that drives engagement
