Plex isn’t perfect, but the open-source aspect of Jellyfin is holding the platform back. Fractured development across its third-party ecosystem prevents any clients from being as functional as apps like Plexamp while also creating hyper-focused support for popular platforms and leaving smaller platforms virtually unsupported.

This is a strange take. Being open source doesn’t cause unfocused development and platform prioritization issues. Those both happen to proprietary software, especially the latter.

These are more symptoms of it being a community project rather than developed by a company, but community FOSS projects can also be run very effectively. There are many examples of this.

A lot of FOSS development is done by the people who use it. So I suspect as more people move away from Plex, a subset of those users will help contribute to the aspects of Jellyfin they care about.

Jellyfin development is accelerating, while Plex’s enshittification is accelerating. The line is different for everyone, and one by one, I suspect Plex will cross them all.

How else can I have live ISOs of various Linux distros at the ready?

There have been so many cases of tech companies being caught lying about what data they collect/sell, the only way to be really sure is to never give them the data in the first place.

If you already know NFS and it works for you, why change it? As long as you’re keeping it between Linux machines on the LAN, I see nothing wrong with NFS.

Who TF DDoSs the AUR? Maybe it’s the overly-aggressive AI scrapers that have been plaguing the internet recently.

Gum helps keep me from snacking between meals.

Understandable, I’m mostly just commenting on the demographic in this particular Lemmy topic.

I get that “just port it to Linux” is no easy undertaking, especially if multiplatform wasn’t part of the original architecture.

This project looks interesting, and this update does come with some significant improvements. However, I imagine on Lemmy you’ll find a pretty high percentage of Linux users, who won’t be able to use the client. Something like this with a Linux client that can integrate with Lutris to install games would be really cool.

People angry that Superman represents kindness

Do these people exist? Is it just one troll, or a significant enough of a population to even give the slightest bit of thought?

This is fine, but I ditched Ubuntu on my raspberry pi’s when they kept breaking DNS by changing my network configuration with every upgrade.

Hold off on this one if you use the official docker container.

This update has some broken dependencies the prevent it from starting correctly.

According to archeologists, it was probably obsidian.

According to game theory, tit for tat is the most effective long-term strategy.

Literally all of you was either food/drink or oxygen from the air at some point—whether it was consumed by you or by your mother.

Flowers like this reminding us that they are, in fact, the plant’s sex organ.

There’s nothing particularly “smart” about machine learning models. They are still programs that run on computers, the only difference is that they are made by another program rather than by a human, so they are too complicated for humans to meaningfully read.

Also, the meaning of digital hasn’t really changed. It still refers to information that is represented in bits rather than some analog format.

Connect with hot services on your LAN.

Why is this marked NSFW?

Yes, you absolutely could do that. You can run it locally and access it on localhost:8010

Also, even if you have it on a server on the LAN, many people would consider LAN “offline”.
