They don’t. Ids in Jellyfin are based on the path of the file, so easily guessable with a sufficiently large rainbow table

- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
No, I’m complaining about people who act like Jellyfin is a drop in replacement while ignoring everything that would make it harder to user than Plex. I like Jellyfin and I would like nothing better than to have it as my disposal should POlex actually turn evil one day. But the current state is just not feasible if you want a seamless transition.
I live in a country with a very active and litigious copyright lawyer scene, so I will not take the risk of my server exposing the contents of my library, even if that is a minor risk.
When I can run Jellyfin and expose it through a subdomain, I will. But the devs have made it clear that that won’t be anytime soon, since they would rather have an insecure app than break compatibility with clients
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
And if you can wipe the foam from your mouth for a second, you’ll notice I wrote ‘software’ not network.
But in the end all you’re here for is a pad on the back from the Jellyfin guys for “seeing the light”. So you do you and maybe I won’t have to read more of you Plex posts, since you’re now in happy Jellyfin land

But somehow it’s still Plex’s fault
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
And I would suggest learning how to configure your software before coming here and stirring shit. But we can’t always get what we want
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
So instead of a service that works, I now have:
- an inferior (and incomplete) client experience, unless I spend money
- an additional device to allow the client to connect to Jellyfin, because I can’t safely expose it to the internet
- the responsibility to keep all that additional stuff working for myself and everyone of my friends/family members
sounds like a great deal
- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
It’s also always the Jellyfin fans that get emotional about this. Liking Plex is like a cardinal sin to them and I should be happy to migrate my entire viewership to a new solutions that requires them to install a vpn client on their device.
Every post I see here about Plex is some variation of Gotcha! or Schadenfreude where they expect everyone to say, “oh no, guess I’ll pack it up and start fresh”

- Comment on Plex has paywalled my server! 1 week ago:
If you don’t set it to host, the docker container is in a different ip range than your tv. That’s why it assumes it’s not in the same network (which it isn’t)

Really surprised that noone has gone and poured some sugar in them yet. The us discourse is so violence centered, with people claiming what they think is an adequate response to an infringement of their rights, but when push comes to shove nothing happens.

I think the flashing is actually when an assitive system triggers the break
- Comment on Front Brake Lights Could Drastically Diminish Road Accident Rates 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, just have an accelerometer that triggers them

If you want to do something java like, try Kotlin. Its a more modern take on java and not developed by Oracle
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
I have a Philipps OLED TV from 2019, with Android 9 or smth. But WebOS is a different beast.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
The issue is their approach to security. I don’t trust them to properly secure their software, since they have proven to prefer client compatibility over security.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, but since you basically need a VPN to share Jellyfin safely, you now also need to install and maintain that on their end
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
I will not make myself the tech guy for half my friends and family, just because I can’t share Jellyfin safely without a vpn
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
Also the people that know how to set that all up and still expose a Jellyfin server to the public internet
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
Because Jellyfin users like to feel superior. Accepting that other people have other requirements from software is hard, especially when you feel like you choice is the only valid one.
As a long time Plex user, who has a Jellyfin running in parallel, just not shared, I will keep using Plex until they either force me off of it or Jellyfin manages to make accessing servers remotely easier and more secure.
- Comment on Plex now will SELL your personal data 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, first thing I did after testing the new app. Still don’t know why they feel the need to push this out so aggressively instead of letting it run in parallel until its ready
