- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 1 week ago:
I can only tell you that personally I’m interested in trying out Navidrome because I don’t like all my eggs in one basket (Jellyfin is more complex sw for sure too) and I think I’m not the only one caring more about my music collection than movies and tv. But I did try Jellyfin for music (not with my main library) and it works very well, Finamp on android has offline mode which I find almost essential.

- Comment on The New Guy 2 weeks ago:
New Guy (Careproctus colliculi) is part of the genus Careproctus:
Its generic name is derived from the Ancient Greek κάρα (kara, “face, head”) and πρωκτός (prōktos, “anus”), therefore literally meaning “butt-face”.

- Comment on Solar is EU’s biggest power source for the first time ever | Ember 2 months ago:
LiFePo4 are now about 50$/kwh, still going down. Plenty of sun in the winter too, just needs to install a little more pv. In fact the worst heat wave is not ideal for photovoltaics, they work better / are more efficient when they are aren’t scorching hot (e.g. often in the summer mornings they produce more than at midday)

That sounds good to me, we use wireguard in the family when out and about to access my homeserver, but I’d love if Jellyfin could create ad-hoc tunnels, it’d make us feel safe enough sharing our libraries with friends, perhaps it will convince many Plex users too. What are funkwhale users doing to share their music for example?
The other commenter wrote about STUN servers (IP), I’ve seen that Syncthing uses them as well, together with discovery and relay servers. Would wireguard be used at any of this stages or standalone? Personally I have no idea, I’m just an observant user 😅
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 months ago:
I’m not a security expert but my guts (and the many things I read about this stuff over many years) tell me that cheap highly marketed VPNs like Nord seek the less informed users that sign up because half of their favorite youtubers sent them there, the default M.O. is install the (proprietary) app. It might be possible to use them safely but it’s not what’s happening to 99% of the customers.
They operate in grey legal areas, there are many scandals over the years, they write in their TOS that they can change the terms themselves without notice, if you use their service, you agree at any time.
When I wrote that they do what they want w your network, this is what I’m referring to; idk about the “settings”, more like selling access to your residential line (perhaps to other VPN customers)

I haven’t used Plex in a decade and I use Jellyfin, what you’re describing sounds perfect. I read up a bit on STUN servers and it’s what Syncthing uses, but they also mantain discovery and relay servers (and anyone can host one and can be added to the public list). Security wise they seem to be doing fine?(I’m not an expert, just an informed user)
Idk what combo Jellyfin would benefit the most from; are relay servers needed? The workload is similar but probably higher on average, people stream more often than they do backups

Haha totally, I should have said processed food, it’s the most marketed.
We could also say ultra processed news now that I think about it: statistical data -> random blog article misinterprets the charts -> tweet w people not reading the sources -> screenshot goes around on facebook -> LLM regurgitates it -> TV news anchor says it with a straight face
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 months ago:
I understand this but we have to realize that what makes Plex simpler is the fact that they are a network intermediary that does what it wants with your home networks; it’s like insisting that NordVPN is better than Mullvad
IMHO the only solution will be improving wireguard guis and stuff, Jellyfin is not lacking.

Exactly, it’s very small for a “NAS”, that’s the main advantage. Sub 1liter if my math is right.

Heat pump and dual direction charging are awesome though. I don’t imagine they’re using these kei cars between the cities when they can get high speed trains.
Nissan could easily take 5k off but has been hesitant/gradual with EV adoption just like the rest of the Japanese producers.

Hi thanks for the suggestion, do you mean they have a free trial or is there also a free tier that doesn’t expire?

A software’s website and docs are very telling, aren’t they? It’s like a cultural thing from the creators, some open source software will always be more business oriented, others are more helpful towards homelab /self-hosting users.

Many car “keys” are wireless tokens nowadays (tbf I’m not sure of the security compared to traditional keys, I only heard some brands like Kias were very easy to steal in the last few years).
Mostly we want a million buttons with tactile feedback, I’m with OP! I would also like an EV “econobox”: a sensible shitty boxy lightweight car with a small LiFePo4 battery that charges fast. Spend 100$ more dollars on the charger and cooling goddammit, or make THAT upgradable!
