Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Not until it's a mandatory popup or recommendation any time you want to watch. Or maybe mandatory ads and popups on "new releases". With Plex, nothing surprises me now.

Well I use Jellyfin as I don't want proprietary software on my system and this isn't making me have any regrets. The benefit of Plex is what again?

Yeah this “pretty major UX refresh” line bothers me A LOT. Kinda like when Amazon fucked up the UX/UI on the cheap fire tv sticks.

It would be great, but no chance in hell movie studios would go along with this.
