  • Sharing my library securely

    As long as you don’t mind sharing your library with Plex and relying on them to authenticate everyone and get accounts.

    I get why you are saying this, but to me that is a big negative. As long as I am going to self host, I might as well do it right and not need a paid third party I have no control over on my server.

    On the other hand, I only have about 4 households I am interested in sharing with, so it was easy to configure that and be done with it. I have no desire to share to my family and they really have no desire to use it, my friends just don’t care. So I can understand it was easier for me to fill my use case.

    I wonder if we are at a tipping point, where someone would be willing to pay just for the Jellyfin to Internet connection (basically a plex like plugin or additional container).



  • No. There is no valid reason to use it. All this does is continue to enable a massive AI data center and Zuckerbergs billions. Walking away is the only viable option. It needs to go away, stop helping it remain.

    Edit: Why would any one argue with this? Unless you are a billionaire, use of this shit is hurting you. Your environment, AI slop, your politics for fucks sake. Continued use is making your life worse for the sake of a handful of people enriching themselves from it, and you don’t care?
