Just to be clear. The flatpak is free but the mobile one is $3,62?

Not judging, nothing wrong with FOSS getting sources of income to keep the work up. But I’m just trying to make sure I understand the rationale. What does the app exposes on users? because pay usually demands google play’s most privacy invasive services.

Yeah, it’s going the be a whole ordeal. I will have to block an afternoon for the migration. Definitely not a “never breaks anymore” scenario. Everything can be broken, there’s no perfectly stable software.

Funny enough I had to rollback, since it doesn’t start in the latest version in my setup. I have to make a conscious effort to keep it one or two subversions behind. It is not the first time an upgrade breaks my install. It will probably be a whole thing when I decide to actually upgrade it again.

Right now, the latest update doesn’t run in my otherwise until now perfectly working environment. It’s frustrating because there’s no easy way to downgrade it in my setup.

Brick ovens can go there, doesn’t mean that you should cook the pizza at that unless you’re one who likes charcoal as a topping.

When people have to use something everyday for work, they become acutely aware of every one of its shortcomings and the reasons behind them. When they realize that it could be better but isn’t because of a bullshit reason and, on top of that, there’s no better alternative, this creates resentment. Because then your survival depends on you putting up with unnecessary BS.

I hate that I can’t change the auth method. I’m stuck with github. And for the life of me can’t figure out how to change to anything else. The option is not there were help says it should be, and support doesn’t care. My only choice is to scrap everything and start a new network from scratch.

Classic not all wasps apologist.

If you don’t trust Tailscale there’s like 3 different FOSS self-hosted alternatives. Setting one up is actually not that much more complex than setting a reverse proxy and you control the tunnelling network end to end.

I recognize the complexities involved. But as long at data centers are fueled by a fossil based grid and use clean water for cooling, this amount of paper is not hurting more nor less. OP is fine, if they want to save trees the move is to stop corn and palm oil in products. That’s what is destroying forests.

Before full paperless, a college semester for me was a quarter of a small closet stack of paper. By the time I graduated it was a couple of notebooks and a tiny binder not larger than yours. Paper is super recyclable, paper is not what is killing the rainforest, if that is your concern. A single Google data center kills more and wastes more resource than all the tiny paper stacks of each student combined.

Wow, that’s a lot of projection on a single comment. I didn’t disagree with any of the comments. And I’m not attacking anyone. Chill down, we are talking about software ffs.

Always remember that the point of this scene is that the guy saying “I don’t think about you at all” is an insecure prick who is constantly anxious of losing his power and status. He thinks about it all the time, this scene is just bravado to keep up a façade of suave indifference, but inside he is spiraling out of control because the other dude took a project away from him. So, this meme doesn’t say what you think it says.

Pangolin then.

There’s only one, well, now two with yours, comments about that. Any negativity is being brought here by you. Sure, people who use jellyfin advocate for it whenever they can. Just like Linux users can be seen as insufferable by windows only people. Or self-host fans can be felt as insufferable by people happy giving their data to google, Microsoft, meta and apple. But then, you fucking missed your turn, this is self-host, what do you think people were going to talk about here?

I didn’t say fallacy. I said sunk cost. I’m not judging. It’s a legitimate sunk cost if it is indeed rationally better to keep using it rather than stopping.

After 22 hours and 291 comments, I can see that 80% is sunk cost, 15% never bothered to look at their Jellyfin client’s settings, and the rest use a device that doesn’t have a client for Jellyfin yet.

When setup with tunnels, cloudflare doesn’t see any media traffic. Cloudflare only needs to serve the auth and handshakes. The actual traffic is IP to IP, TLS encrypted if you setup a domain correctly. Or just use something like tailscale that sets up the certificates and domains for you.

You have a VPS that relays the pangolin tunnel and a reverse proxy serving the tunnel through a cloudfare + fail2ban protected domain. It should be really cheap since the vps only really runs for the initial auth and connection, and once in a while to update the tunnel IPs. You just give people a domain and a credential for the client.

It sounds complicated but isn’t really. I did it once but then returned to plain tailscale since I don’t really share my server with many people.

That’s a per client behavior. Wholphin for Android, for example, does it the Plex way.
