Plex is once again increasing the monthly price users must pay to stream their own media (if this is you, why haven’t you purchased a lifetime pass yet?)
Better yet, why have you not migrated to Jellyfin. Why are you paying someone else to view your own stuff?
The hard part about Jellyfin is that it requires your own domain and some more self-hosting knowledge that a hobbyist might not have yet.
It’s not a super hard transition, but it took me a few months on/off to learn the basics of hosting a website from my house.
I’m still trying to figure out headscale on a VPS so I can mask my home IP
I have my own domains, but I do not use them for Jellyfin. I use Jellyfin on my lan or over my personal VPN.
That means it can’t be shared (easily) with others. That’s the appeal of Plex and the reason why switching entirely to Jellyfin is not an easy thing to do.
wg-easy. Makes Wireguard dead easy.
So all the people who want to use your Jellyfin server have to deal with a VPN first?
That’s my point. Plex was easily accessible for friends and family with minimal setup. Jellyfin requires a bit more knowledge.
You’re making it sound like I’m making my users walk a mile on burning coals! Yes, I do expect them to be able to be able to tie their shoelaces, install an application and scan a QR code. It’s not like they’re not getting anything in return for such “trouble”. ;)
It’s also pretty insecure so host over the web at your own risk.
Give Netbird a shot. I set it up in like two hours. Much easier than my failed attempt at headscale+tailscale.
The website for JDownloader (download manager) was recently compromised, replacing official download links with malware-laced installers
So, no changes?
This looks really cool
