- Comment on Why bother with jellyfin, arr stack and everything else if free streaming services exist? 22 hours ago:
I just like actually owning all my stuff and don’t want to deal with sites randomly shutting down, moving, having an incomplete or miss-organized library, bad quality, etc. My own collection certainly isn’t prefect but if there is issues I can fix them, it’s all in one place (no different sites for movies, tv shows, anime, etc) and it tracks all my watch-history which most free sites don’t. I can one-click download stuff to my laptop or phone for offline-watching (guess you can do that with yt-dlp for most sites, but again more effort)
Are you hosting arr stack/plex/jellyfin?
Yup.
How much is it utilized (in watch hours/week for example, mine was less than 2/week)?
I get about 3 days of watch-time between my 10ish active users per week.
Have you considered not using it?
Nope, I’m so done with the free streaming site whack-a-mole, not going back.

- Comment on Why I moved my Plex library to Jellyfin after 14 years 6 days ago:
You used to have to pay for the mobile apps (though, not per device but per apple/google account) a while ago, maybe the previous poster was talking about that.

I’m laughing my ass off!
- Comment on Classic dubs seemed so much better. Now most dubs seem unwatchable 2 weeks ago:
Pretty much the opposite for me. The older the dub, the cringier it tends to be.

- Comment on Help for jbod 2 months ago:
Before I switched to my big NAS, I had 7 USB drives attached to my old ones, daisy chained over two USB 3.0 hubs. The USB connection was never the limiting factor.
You would need something like 3 people simultaneously streaming a 4k movie from 3 different HDDs for that to be an issue.

but you have to watch the shows using their shitty site
Most of the anime I torrent is ripped from CR, so no you don’t!

For remote access, sure. But I don’t see a problem otherwise.
