  Yeah, a similar amount for less money could be feasible. I guess. Not sure how cheap the sanding of the lens structure is though

  Wouldn’t this be negated by the fact, that the same area of roof now has less actual PV cell on it? Since the light gets concentrated on a smaller area?

  If we take “Earth” as the biosphere, because honestly the naked rock isn’t that interesting, then the cancer analogy is fitting. After all, we grew as part of that Earth and have developed to a size and growth that now threatens to kill our host/the rest of the body

  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!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex has paywalled my server!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But somehow it’s still Plex’s fault

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex has paywalled my server!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ 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.
