Rumors are out that they’re gonna try to enshitify Plex too.
Not saying run away, but maybe keep Jellyfin handy.
Jellyfin go brr
I store my media library on a truenas server, all I have to do is boot up a jellyfish VM and point it to the same filepath.
I will be experimenting with it to see which I prefer and so I have a backup if plex goes to shit
Same but unraid.
Plex is better at figuring out naming issues.
JF lacks a global lookup so you have to sort your own DNS.
But then again, JF doesn’t sell your watching habits
I have em in parallel ATM.
Really as long as plex doesn’t try to crack down on locally hosted media, I’m not worried.
I think that would pretty much end them.
I think we’re in for pre-roll ads. More invasive pushes to get us to purchase content from partners. Theyre already selling what and where we’re watching. My guess is the different streaming services will be really interested in where our eyes are if we’re not their customer.
My biggest worry is plex seeing when we’re watching stuff before it’s available. Let’s say the streaming companies continue to decline and piracy continues to increase, If the MPAA decides to renew its fight against piracy they might very well have a database of what and when we’re watching everything.
Right now there’s not really anything they could do about it at least in the US. But right now isn’t 5 years from now on this data is going to live on.
It’s not that hard to picture a change of events where you’re watching a Netflix exclusive show and they line up that you don’t have a Netflix subscription. Putting numbers to intellectual property sale losses without paying is a pretty good way to get laws made.
Exact same setup. I used to leave the jellyfin container there, but off. Now I leave it on. I just have so many custom tweaks in my music library for id3 tags and things so not really looking forward to that part of the migration. For now I’ve been sorta used ng them interchangeably.
Kodi goes brrrrrr
