Agreed it all really just depends on what functionality is important to you. If it was just me and my wife using it I’d absolutely be using Jellyfin. But between grandparents and small children using mine, I got so many complaints I had to turn Plex back on after a week.
Interesting, I haven’t noticed anything, in fact since I switched everything has felt faster. And I’m constantly sending large files to devices on other VLANs.
Mainly for security reasons. Both servers have some limited exposure to the internet. Are you saying doing it that way has performance implications? I haven’t noticed any problems its all fast just like before when everything was on the same LAN
I use OpenWRT on my network and each server I have is on its own VLAN. So in my case, my router is the firewall to my servers. But I do have on my todo list to get the local firewalls working as well. As others have said, security is about layers. You want an attacker to have to jump multiple hurdles.
Is there any evidence that Plex has been spying? Genuinely curious. Sure they are closed source so we cant prove they are not.
Figured it out. The flatpak version will fail to play video if you have audio pass through enabled. The .deb package works though.
Can’t the ISP pretty easily tell what website you are going to anyways? After all they are the one that ultimately connect you to the destination so they know the IP. Would just be one more step for them but they could figure out which domains resolve to that IP.
As someone who has attempted to switch to Jellyfin a few times now, I have to agree. Its a great project and my switch would have been successful if it was only me using it. But between my parents streaming remotely and my kids, its not even remotely close to what Plex offers currently.
Are you by chance using Wayland?
Right ya at some point there will be a PlexPass Pro lol
So the flatpak version of Jellyfin works for you? I cant get it to play more then one thing. hitting the play button just does nothing.
If you are currently a Plex user i highly suggest at least putting together an exit strategy. I am in the process of it but it’s rough. In fact, i think Plex might be the last thing i replace with a FOSS solution.
Can anyone suggest a model for light coding? I’m on a 3070 mobile.
Discord calls it a server but its really just a different term for a chat room. Discord does not allow you to host on your own infrastructure its all locked down and closed source.
They are not hosting it themselves. All infrastructure is fully controlled by Discord and they are subject to all Discord rules and decisions.
You can’t host your own Discord server
Added one more to the pile
I do believe I tried that but I’ll try again, thanks.
The only thing that sucks about it is some sites just flat out don’t work well. For example, in Librewolf I cannot login to my banks website. The site loads, but the login just hangs. Firefox it works immediately.
I just wish the Dev would come up with a way to allow me to buy it without the play store.
