Definitely saving this for later. Thanks!!!

Hopefully after Tildes, though I wouldn’t blame if he doesn’t want to support two apps.

People have been smoking Marijuana since the 60’s and it’s still a federally illegal drug at the level of heroine. Laws don’t change quickly in the US at all.

Maybe it’s my VPN provider then. I’ll have to try it with another one. I’ve followed so many of those documents. Do you use Port Forwarding with PrivadoVPN?

I’ve spent all today and yesterday trying to get this working with PureVPN and QBitTorrent and it hasn’t been working much at all 😭. It’s been painfully slow when it works at all, which has been rare. Although it has been doing the job of hiding the Docker container IP so that’s good, and it makes me think it’s something minor, like port forwarding not working because of PureVPN or something off with my settings, or it’s a qBittorrent issue, or Docker and Linux inexperience.

Admittedly troubleshooting has been slow because I’m super new to Linux and Docker and keep running into permission and file system issues. Running the VPN and torrent straight in my computer was way easier, but I’d really love to be able to run Plex and a torrent client on the same computer on at the same time with Plex not going through the VPN and the torrent client going through it, which is what this seems great for.

Thanks. That’s good to know.

I bet it’s the person mentioned before who had been making thousands of junk communities and got banned. We already know they do troll stuff and have the technical aptitude for scripting.

Well that’s a huge caveat. I bet their communities would be bigger then.

It needs to be in the mobile apps.

Still doesn’t make a lot of sense to me, nor to a lot of other people. Ukraine doesn’t have the right to decide their country wants to join NATO? Russia wants oil or a buffer so innocent Ukrainian citizens get to die? It’s not innocent Russians dying, because they are the aggressor in this case. They are being the US here, like the US was in Iraq. They interfere in just as many elections, have oligarchs, so much corruption, etc. But because they’re not the West, they’re the good guys?

But while I still don’t agree with that lemmygrad’s strange, hypocritical takes, I still don’t agree with defederating (with them or hexbear). Defederating should be a last resort in my opinion.I don’t want echo chambers. Talk to people or ban the troublesome ones. Hopefully improved mod tools released one day helps with all this defederating.

I think it does that if they’re cross posted, at least someone else said that, but maybe they need to make that easier on more of the mobile clients.

Can you put this suggestion on their Github issues tracker? It’s brilliant.

It needs to be enabled on more mobile apps then.

It looks very similar to Plex, right? Do you have a tl;Dr on the advantages of jellyfin?

Ooh that is nice and cheap. I’ll have to look into that. Also, thanks for the explanation of transcoding! I’ve been seeing that term everywhere.

On a separate note, it’s nice to see Lemmy building up it’s own knowledge base on these issues so I, and future people in my position, won’t have to rely on googled Reddit answers lol.

Nope. I just had Plex already installed on my Smart TV because some friends let me share their Plex servers and as a techie person I wanted to experiment with doing that, too, rather than asking them to get the content I wanted.

Tbh, I haven’t looked into jellyfin too much. Would you say you prefer that over Plex?

Was it cheaper than $200? That’s one draw of the Nvidia Shield and Raspberry Pi other people in this thread have mentioned. Although I’m sure they’re less powerful.

When do you need transcoding?

The best way to summarize it is the writing lol. And they tried to rush plot points way too fast.

Thanks! That’s a good actionable next step. I’ll have to look into what benefits Plex pass gives, too.

Sounds nice and simple. May I ask which NAS you use of recommend? Or maybe it doesn’t matter?
