Me don’t have no camera

Yes, an authoritarian system with a rank of 144/167 in the democracy index “was already a democracy”. I mean fuck the fascists in the US, but leave your tankie BS at .ml

I have an off site backup that runs every 24 hours with rustic, for my important documents I archive with paperless. That’s about it. If there is no energy anymore I give a shit on my Jellyfin collection but see how I can cook food. If I need to flee I may take an HDD with me, but only the important stuff.

Nah man, this is self hosted, your points are valid and should be discussed. It is true that tailscale may enshittify, however it is only one out of many solutions. Like the other comment said there is head scale, and in the end you still have the possibility to go the way of a reverse proxy server and pipe Jellyfin through the open internet, which will be hard for many in the sense of configuration and hardening. But the underlying software which is Jellyfin is FOSS, that is the most important aspect.

I use Tailscale and it is absolutely fine. The problem is with other non tech savy people - the setup process is not straightforward so you need to help them a bit. They can’t just “connect”. But after that, Tailscale is great.

I don’t know much about Plex but I guess because it is not easy for the average guy. Setting up a remote connection without a VPN is definitely not something I would recommend to someone who is just a media enthusiast.

Why not both?

Just use mailbox.org or posteo.de . Using one of those providers is so much better than a Google mail address but so easier than hosting your own mail server.

I also like the idea of publishing a shake my head opinion

By that definition, no. But the Threadiverse is small enough, that I would allow it. Plex follows a similar spirit, but enshittified over the years.

I use Jellyfin btw.

I think the price hike is from June or July 1

Same! Honest question, is the Arr stack only for pirates? I mean the name suggests this but I am not entirely sure

This is one of the good uses of AI. It is called object detection with neural networks and is a very classic use of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in computer vision.
There was no LLM, no transformer, no huge data center necessary for training this model.

Please distinguish generative from predictive AI, it means a lot to all the data scientists out there inventing cool stuff!
