Meanwhile, poor Jellyfin just quietly doing the job.
Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Plex has always been trash imo. Far better open source options available.
How else can they afford to stream samurai cop 3 and other things you never asked? You guys need to support them in becoming the best corp they can be! They want to be big boys now.
Is Kodi still a thing? Been a while since I had a media server but I have another one in the works because fuck streaming services
Kodi exists however it's a client only, it is not made to host content. You are looking for jellyfin
+1 for Jellyfin!
"enshittification wont happen to my software of choice"
hahahaha... those ppl with discord, iphones, windows,plex....they wont learn.
Force PlexPass first, get money, then change terms.
Coordinated big-brain evil.
Big plus - identify all accounts interested in privacy. Thus = suspicious accounts.
This is the path for Plex to become Digg, Playon, and reddit.
We are altering the deal. Pray, we do not alter it further.
Damn it damn it damn it!! I can't use Jellyfin because...its what I watch all my porn on. Plex was used for all the family stuff. Mother fuckers! Greed is a bitch. Edit: Wait..what if we are using a VPN...shouldnt we be good then?
Docker and tailscale you can run multiple instances
You can hide libraries on jellyfin.
Just create a family user and a porn user and login how you please.
Or...If feeling a little bit paranoid, run a second copy of Jellyfin. That's what I do. Works well for me.
Sweet Jesus thank you!
It specifically mentions email addresses (used for account creation I assume) and what content is being watched, which a VPN wouldn't do anything for.
What if its all tied to a seedbox, would that matter?
lmao.
Yes! How can I use this with my seedbox? Just FTP to my computer and use the stashapp from there?
I might actually have to switch to Jellyfin then...
I say that as a paying plex pass customer
I find it wild that you still seem unsure. What would make you say "Thats it, im switching!"?
