I know all the tech layoffs lately are due to corporate financial greed, but I can’t help to feel like it’s just a big “fuck you” to everyone enjoying the newfound freedom of remote work, to flood the job market with people desperate enough that they have to take a 100% in office role again.
Woah. This is a game changer. Thank you!
One can hope. I read an article recently that said in the US, millennials and gen z should be the largest voting bloc by 2028. The problem is, how many of them are voting? In my anecdotal experience, very few of my millennial peers vote. We’re gonna need a way to fight the doomerism mindset with younger people and make them realize we have the numbers to turn this around.
Thanks for this! I had downtime at work yesterday, and this post inspired me, so I drug out the sff pc I had lying around for this purpose, set it up with Ubuntu server and managed to get jellyfin set up in a docker container without too much trouble. Right now it’s local network only vs Plex and I’ll probably keep both up for now. Plex is running on a windows gaming desktop though, so it will be nice to turn that off more often and save some electricity when I don’t need it. How are you handling access outside the house? Port forwarding? Vpn to the home? I think today if I have the time I’ll look into portainer before moving on to sonarr. But, I have noticed much of my video files aren’t in the H.264 format that Jellyfin likes, which is causing playback issues/lag in Firefox. So I may also start looking into a way to start converting all my files instead. Thanks everyone for convincing me to get my stuff together!
I’ve been debating moving from my Plex setup without any lidarr/etc automations to jellyfin plus all of those things, but it seems fairly intimidating. How long did it take you to set it all up?
They use the stock android interface. They’re (oversimplification but) basically android with all the proprietary and Google stuff removed.
