They’re not doing this

Hey, you made it!

Man we need another one filled with Wikipedia, and project Gutenberg dumps, and a few other things.

And cat pics. Lots of cat pics.

Surprisingly, that is what the fin is for

Jellyfin once located my lost puppy. Which Plex had stolen.

There’s lots of reasons I don’t want to set this up

There’s also Emby. And some other options.

You dont have to pay Plex per connected device, but you do have to pay something somewhere for remote streaming.

I also want to make sure that people connecting can ONLY access jellyfin. And I keep hearing about its own security flaws.

I don’t trust people connecting to themselves not be compromised by someone else, for one thing.

Not something that unfortunately works as easily for me to connect my ailing mom’s TV to, and do NOT want to manage the reverse proxy + cert + etc setup for a number of reasons

Thanks. So far you seem like exactly the kind of person needed, I really appreciate all the thoughtful engagement already.

That person appears to have also blocked me. For mentioning this history, I assume. Which seems like a REALLY bad sign for this community if so.

Great!!

Thanks for stepping up.

No, the other one.

Great to hear that you would have a problem with it.

Personally, unless you guys feel you are absolutely up to the task on your own, I think you should also search out a great candidate and add at least one more mod.

One of our new mods was banned from this community for telling someone “kys” 🤥

None of that happened

Please do!

I assume they did not read the post very clearly.

It was a mod

No, they don’t.

They didn’t

She. I remember thinking “there are a ton of people here making assumptions and assuming the worst about people, based on no evidence”… Other people were saying maybe it was mods.

Sadly a bunch of those people will move forward thinking a ton of users were just being assholes and not what actually happened.

What’d I miss?

I also appreciate that

I’m with you. I don’[ NEED a 5-node VM cluster on top of all the other crap.

But I wanted a 5-node VM cluster.

For what it’s worth Xrdp seems to work well on Linux

Even on Wayland?

Lol

What about remote streaming, to other users…?

For remote streaming to, say, your mum’s house? (Or a friend, etc)?

Is it more intuitive to set up for remote streaming to friends…? That’s the use case here and as far as I know the answer is a big “no”.

I did 100 or so Win95 (incl OSR2) installs and never ran into that.
