Anything that puts on the front page of its project site the use case for itself to relate to AI agents instantly makes me suspicious and not interested. I can’t help it.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 4 days ago:
Possibly 🤷♂️ As soon as I see AI agent, I stop reading.
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
That’s simpler and better (nondestructive) than renaming files, for sure. Still an extra step I need to take vs not having to do so.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 4 days ago:
You’re welcome, and I’m not wrong.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 4 days ago:
Wrong?
n8n gives you more freedom to implement multi-step AI agents and integrate apps than any other tool.
It’s the main pitch, bro. It’s the primary focus.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 4 days ago:
No it’s not?
n8n gives you more freedom to implement multi-step AI agents and integrate apps than any other tool.
🤷♂️ Guess their frontpage is full of shit then.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 4 days ago:
Also would like to know. Bad title.

Why are still trying to blame this on the user, lol?
If the user has to do more work for the same result, it’s a worse system. Period.
That’s it. 🤷♂️
To go into more detail:
How did I choose to ignore instructions when I didn’t read them in the first place? Neither system’s installation instructions has this in it. You’d have to deep dive when you realize it doesn’t work for one of them. Namely Jellyfin.
“Choosing” to ignore it is also a matter of definition. If I rename all my shit, I am a) duplicating lots of downloads on my system because I need to keep the original in order to seed, or b) not able to seed and lose my ability to gain more content in the first place.
Sometimes people’s circumstances are different from yours, my friend.
I understand Jellyfin is better in so many other aspects, I agree with that, but do not defend one single feature which works objectively worse and pin it on the user. Don’t be that person.
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
Unless some is already familiar with plex, they probably won’t find your different language version.
I don’t have this issue, but I agree it could be easier to see which version you are playing. I think it’s supposed to be very different quality versions, so one would be like 4K, then 1080p, then maybe 720p. But when you have one English 4K and one Nordic 4K, is a 50-50 guessing game. It’s easy to switch once you start playing though.
Still better than Jellyfin though, in this particular regard.
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
Yeah that’s good too, but ultimately for a different purpose. Still great. Jellyfin have that?
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
If you deviate from it, that’s on you.
I don’t understand why we need to “pin it” on someone?
I just works differently, I’m a way that requires more hands-on work, as opposed to no hands-on work. So it’s objectively worse. That’s on me?
It being in the docs is irrelevant in this context. It could’ve been there or not. But the fact that I need to do extra work as opposed to not makes Plex more comfortable in this regard, and I don’t see how that’s up for debate.
If Jellyfin had done it’s duplication check on identified movie IDs instead of filesystem names, we would be in a different situation. But they don’t, and here we are.
I’m not ragging on Jellyfin, I’m just pointing out facts. Not even an opinion piece.
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
That’s what I mean. You have to rename them. Plex handles this automatically, with the same shared library. I wish Jellyfin was better at this.

I would need to inspect every line of that shit before using it. I’d be too scared that it would delete my entire library, like that dude who got their entire drive erased by Google Antigravity…

Thanks for sharing 😆 10/10 very satisfying

This too, yes. 🎯
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 4 days ago:
Not if I want/need to seed both versions. Then it’s a third version I need to keep on disk for a few weeks, instead of just two. Believe me, I’ve had this idea too, and have remuxed several movies to save space. 👍
- Comment on I Went All-In on AI. The MIT Study Is Right. 4 days ago:
Definitely sounds like a tiny shell script but yeah, I guess it’s seconds with an agent rather than a few minutes with manual coding 👍
- Comment on I Went All-In on AI. The MIT Study Is Right. 4 days ago:
Very valid!
- Comment on 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced 5 days ago:
I have both but Jellyfin is not good with duplicates. Having several versions of movies in different languages just puts multiple copies of the movies in Jellyfin, with no distinction between them until you click into the details. Plex does this well with “Play version”.
But Plex is worse for other reasons, on my LG TV. It’s painfully slow and doesn’t play the correct audio track that I select.

Since you put such emphasis on “better”: I’d still like to have an answer to the one I posed.
Yours would be a reasonable follow-up question if we noticed that their vibed projects are utilities already available in the ecosystem. 👍

Maybe they don’t run Linux. 🤭

What kind of small things have you vibed out that you needed?
- Comment on AI Slop Is Ruining Reddit for Everyone 6 days ago:
Yeah AI had nothing to do with it. Ruined waaay before AI took hold. That’s why I left.
The UI was becoming unusable, the policies were unreasonable, the greed got to them, etc, etc.

Hey, that wasn’t even intentional. Accidental genius.
