Would seem so. The project is open source, and nobody is getting paid. So the lack of update makes sense to some extent.

As cool as it is… and as much as I want to make plex shove it completely. Jellyfin just isn’t ready for prime-time.

I run both… Jellyfin isn’t allowed to talk outside of my network at all, and I can access it over my personal VPN… But Plex is where all my users are because anything else would just be too annoying to maintain.

Because a reverse proxy doesn’t resolve any of these major issues.

Your content can be probed, identified, and streamed all without auth. Your users can be enumerated in certain cases.

Edit: If you host legit content, like family videos… All of that can be leaked. If you don’t host legit content… and the public site gets probed and they identify the illegal content… expect to be named in a very large lawsuit… either situation is bad.

Edit2: and hosting it behind a proxy that does it’s own auth would break ALL app-based jellyfin clients.

In some ways it is… In others it’s definitely not.

My biggest problem is that I can’t expose it on a domain for my family to get to. They don’t know how to VPN and to educate them would be exhausting.

If only Jellyfin onboarding was as easy for friends and family…

What makes it harder is that you can’t just expose it to the internet… https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/5415

In order to use Jellyfin you now have to get all your users onto a vpn or some other tunneling service. It’s crazy.

I have both installed… I want to deprecate Plex SO FUKCING BAD. But Jellyfin just isn’t good enough.

pay the license costs for the codecs your using…

granted… none of us care about that. but thats what they’re doing. also developement on the software (for good and bad)

I mean, that’s always kinda been the case. Plex uses their own infrastructure to do remote streaming

Only if you don’t configure your server properly. Then you use their infrastructure to punch a connection through.

Sure but claiming that America, a net energy exporter would have cards held over them because of Saudi oil is a bit silly. America wouldn’t be as “touched” by this as you both seem to claim.

yes. windows xp was a fully local OS, and when you installed it, you stilled owned your computer. these things are not true of windows 10.

Yes you can? It’s windows 11 that tries to lock you out, and even then you can install it without internet if you know the magic incantation…

But windows 10 will just install with a local account if you don’t give it internet (unplug ethernet and never setup a wifi).

sure, and I could say you’re a chainsaw juggling pedophile lizard person who came from the future to make sure flavored foams don’t have a resurgence in upscale dining at any cost because the consequences, drawn out 200 years, are so much worse than fascism and several possible extinction events. saying shit is easy. doesn’t make it true.

The fuck? Any linux install will eventually become unsupported. That is my claim to counter your nonsense claim of Windows becoming unusable.

Go take your pills.

okay but windows will at some point become unusable.

Why would windows 10 magically become unusable? It’s not like Microsoft is going to send out a firmware brick at the EoL.

You know that you can still install XP today and get online… With minimal work you can actually get online completely on modern sites.

The same could be said for any linux distro.

Flying has required a Real ID-based identification for a little while now. Terry stops have enabled cops to stop and identify as long as a cop has “reasonable suspicion”.

There’s nothing to wake up before anymore. It’s been like this for a while… Long before Orange Man took office with terry stops starting in the 60’s, and real id being signed by congress in 2005 (though rollout has been slow).

The “registry rules” is just another thing that people skipping out on their visa’s will also violate… So I’m not sure what the point of that would be necessarily. But I don’t see why anyone would be up and arms about an attempt to track those who are overstaying the country they’re in. It seems reasonable to require a check-in for extended visas. The “best” thing it could do is identify those who intend to skip out a few months earlier which I guess could have some value… at the annoyance of creating check-ins for others.

The choice is hard because many charities already have a hard time maintaining what they have. To move to linux, they’d need people to know linux. Many volunteers that support this stuff simply don’t and are barely power-users themselves. I spend a good chunk of my day interacting with JUST windows users who have no idea how a computer actually works… they just know how to barely operate windows.

Clearly you didn’t… You keep asserting false statements that have already been disproven with sources.

But ultimately it’s the same thing. You need 4 pieces of input. Either 3 satellites AND elevation. Or 4 satellites.

If a watch doesn’t “know” elevation (barometer or other sensor providing such information) as the fourth data point… Then it NEEDS 4 satellites to make the data points whole. Making your statements yet again wrong. I’ve covered the cases… but you keep pushing false statements like “gps is triangulation” (completely incorrect) or “GPS uses 3 satellites” which is also only correct in one very specific case… Where it’s largely 4 or more, with reality being more like as many satellites as the device can read the pulses for. Often being a dozen or even more…

I am making accurate and complete statements. You are the one peddling misinformation.

Hell to prove the point… my time server grabs GPS as it’s primary source. It grabs up to 12 satellites to sync time. It shows me my sync status for lat/long as well… At 3 satellites it CANNOT get a lock for location OR time. At 4 it gets a weak lock.

Which is why they’d need 4 satellites. Read the whole post. Read the given sources. Stop being stupid.

A watch… or other simple gps device doesn’t know what the elevation is.

Only one of the 2 selected points in a 3 satellite setup will be valid. And your device would have no idea which one is valid without elevation knowledge or a 4th satellite. Some devices can figure it out with just 3 satellites. Many/most won’t. But ultimately it’s the same thing. You need 4 pieces of input. Either 3 satellites AND elevation. Or 4 satellites.

So no. I’ve not made a point “for” you. You’re just ignorant or specifically being obtuse on something you clearly don’t understand.

Lat/Long is only valid if elevation is valid. You can’t reference a lat/long that is miles into space… or beneath the crust of the earth.

You are not getting a 3 dimensional location. That’s why GPS coordinates only exist on 2 planes. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

Coordinates on a sphere is a 3 dimensional location. The earth isn’t flat.

Edit: Please education yourself before you’re so confident in your own bullshit answer. https://gisgeography.com/trilateration-triangulation-gps/ and https://www.gps.gov/multimedia/tutorials/trilateration/

Satellites broadcast a sphere, not a circle. And that sphere doesn’t land on the earth as a perfect circle for relatively obvious reason… since the ground isn’t perfect flat, nor is the earth perfectly spheroid.

No, you need 4 minimum.

Two satellites intersection places you on a circle. (all points possible)

Three satellites intersection places you on two possible points.

The last satellite give you the exact location.

However, the 4th can be omitted if one of the 2 points is not in a sane location. (eg well below the crust). And it’s trilateration not triangulation.

The reality is that your phone/device will use like a dozen satellites.

Yeah I’m gunna be frank on this one… it’s GOOD that it broke. If you’re in a car fire (which these seem to do often), you want to be able to break out a fucking window to get out.

Any civilian that wants a window that strong is too stupid to properly risk evaluate the features of a car.

not everything is about porn.

You speak only for yourself.

You ALL have a responsibility to communicate back to lemmy devs to try to stop it.

No I don’t. Stop trying to brigade people to an issue. If you have an issue with it… Fork the lemmy UI code and make your own. Or stay on pre 0.18 code.

It’s one thing to bring awareness to the issue. It’s another to demand that I take action on something that’s not only a non-issue for me (and likely many other admins of instances) but that the devs don’t have to support. You’re not paying them… you’re not their mother. You don’t get to force them to do anything they don’t want to do.

Honestly the captchas that lemmy uses are terrible anyway. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2captcha-solver/ You can even solve them yourself as a browser extension… There’s no point to them in today’s world.
