For remote streaming to, say, your mum’s house? (Or a friend, etc)?
Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica
tehmics@lemmy.world 11 hours agoThat’s the opposite of my experience. Jellyfin just works and immediately exposes the content we’re looking for, plex tries overloading you with bullshit and burying your actual content

Yes, after I set up the server properly (reverse proxy). With this change the same setup on the server side is necessary for remote streaming with free Plex.
My mum puts in the domain, username and password and starts streaming.

…reverse proxy…
Guess what I didn’t have to setup with Plex or Emby.

I believe you. I feel that way about iTunes (trauma intensifies).
But Jellyfin doesn’t have that reputation.

Are you seriously telling us you reading from three reddit threads from almost a decade ago and consider that “reputation “?

I am beginning to remember what made me think Jellyfin wasn’t user friendly.
Maybe it wasn’t the user interface after all.

You’re not wrong.
