For the good of my mental health I always default to people being sarcastic.

If I saw that number on lemmy I would be very concerned

At least Jellyfin let’s you work out the encoding kinks, and set stuff up the way you want.

Meanwhile if plex has central issues transcoding stops working because they force check plex servers for new profiles every time a transcode starts, and if the check fails it just hangs forever (assuming it has Internet access but specifically can’t access the plex url with the transcode profiles. Also this might be solved now but it was a problem just a few months ago)

80TB array here. I’ve recently started using Maintainerr to delete things my friends and family request via seerr if it goes unwatched. I deleted over 15TB of things that was requested but never watched, a lot of entire shows of multiple seasons where someone only watched 2 episodes. (this was years of request history it ran over)

It was that or spending money on more 20TB drives and I just don’t have it in me to spend that money with current prices.

If you haven’t seen it, the video about the lady that had bought an RX-7 new back in the day and her saying goodbye to it as she decides to stop driving is amazing. So cool of Mazda to buy that car back for display.

Oh damn, yeah it was supposed to be &&, probably messed it up when arguing with the stupid phone keyboard adding spaces after symbols

It doesn’t deserve the rest if it fails.

Once a month or so yes!

Doing yay -Syu --noconfirm & shutdown whenever I turn my machine off has been the solution for me

What if your hand isn’t?

Well, it was Tesla insiders saying that about Tesla Robotaxis, not waymos.

It let’s you have one search website where you have it pull results from all other search engines (that you want) and then it can rank results based on where things rank on the various engines.

Tl;dr self hosted search proxy, with some advanced features

I could do that, but going “hey make an account here on this thing that you have no clue what is that I host and then you can use that to log in to my media server” is still too weird and not normal for a normie.

I also think it’s a complete nogo until jellyfin has native support for it.

I use both, I have had my plex running since the lifetime pass could be had for 40 bucks on sale.

I still use plex because it Just Works™️ for my family members. But, the day when they suddenly unprompted blasted all family (and me) with emails about what everyone else watched this week, I decided I would never use it again myself. I also told my family that the next time that stupid ass plex database gets corrupted, I’m not restoring it and they’ll have to join me on jellyfin.

I started using Jellyfin for myself, and I absolutely love it. And settings up my own preferences for transcoding, and things like that giving me full control is fantastic. But jellyfin has issues for multi users imo, sure I can manually make accounts for people and all that. But just the idea of having to input a url for the server in an app is already way past the convenience threshold for a lot.

Also most of the exposed jellyfin endpoints are entirely unprotected, and there’s no native MFA.
