It's funny seeing the corpos implode because they had record growth, which means nothing can match it in the coming quarters and therefore they're going to have to find someway to meet their stupid investor demands.
The only exemption is Twitter, which is just imploding because Elon is a dumbass and not because of greed.
The main point the original comment made was that their "groundbreaking achievement" was their storage and streaming... which isn't really their achievement.
Netflix's technical achievement of DRM is Microsoft's god awful silverlight bs.
Their achievement was being first and showing what streaming could have been. Now that all the big companies have divided off into their own direction, Netflix had to rely on their own content. And Netflix's original content has become hollow, hype-bait, and frustrating.
Drive: NextCloud, FileCloud or Synology Drive are options. But your Intel NUC might be past it's due date if it cant handle something basic like NextCloud.
Meet: Skype and Teams exist for non-selfhosted options. As far as self-hosted options I'm not so sure for something like this.
Except Netflix uses AWS. Which makes it Amazon's achievement.
Literally all Netflix did was get streaming rights before streaming was mainstream, grow because of it, have everyone drive off into the sunset with said rights and make it all shittier.
All Netflix offers these days is 2 season shows that end on a cliffhanger, concerning controversies that make the industry worse as a whole, and Sony movies because Sony doesn't have their own streaming service for some reason.
IF you're going to run your self-hosted server to run a minecraft server, get a webclient front-end. Even though it's not FOSS and therefore a no-no with most lemmy users, AMP from Cube Coders is a great option, it starts a flat $10 fee for a permanent license. It has some fantastic features for remote backup among supporting other games.
However, if you're a bit concerned about that there is Pterodactyl, which I've heard good things about, but I went with AMP because it supports other game servers like GMOD.
No more cars!!
