1·3 days agoOh, ok, “they have to be” in the same way my seedbox says not to download copyright material. Got it.
Oops, you replied to the wrong guy!
Chinese mini pc / mac mini knockoff + enterprise-class external drive array is how I typically handle my media server, I sometimes backup to another drive or a cloud (I know, I know)
Well, I don’t know. Cloudflare seems to be the standard, again with that one exception, and the only reason PTB has a different situation is because the founders had a connect.
This post is making fun of plex. Fuck Plex.
Fuck you Plex
Wow, Cloudflare is against piracy? Every single site I’ve ever seen in my life is registered with Cloudflare and uses their DNS with the exception of PTB I believe.
With tailscale you either have to 1) download an app and click a button on every device you want to watch Jellyfin or 2) click a few buttons once, and then access your Jellyfin on the open internet forever with HTTPS
Plex is the most plug-in-play, I understand not wanting to go through setting it up, but you’re not accurately portraying how difficult it actually is to access. It is not difficult to access, but you have to set everything up yourself.
For music you’ve got to add a background and make it a ‘music video’, then it works, but mostly it’s for video
Tailscale is, as far as I know, the standard way most people access Jellyfin from away from home. I didn’t come up with “use tailscale” by myself. Somebody at one point told me to do this too.
Headscale, Netbird, so many alternatives that do the same thing.
Yeah, some smart TVs have tailscale in the app library. NVIDEA streaming boxes usually do, for example. You can also use tailscale funnel and Cloudflare to give you HTTPS if you don’t want to have everyone you know download tailscale.
just use tailscale
I think it’s the recent update
Jellyfin is miles better and Plex fucking spies on you
Not in my experience. I just had to click a few buttons. Once you set it up, it just works, with only the need to occasionally update the server.
Granted, I do have some experience in this area, so I might be doing the arrogant geologist meme. Maybe if it’s so difficult to set up, I should do a tutorial one of these days.
