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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Remote play…..

Library sharing…,,

Apps on everything….

You can do all that on JF. Apps are def available on most things.

If you really wanted to try to complain about it, you should complain about security, search speed and subtitle support.

Remote play you can't unless you want to open your network up to the internet, which is a terrible idea, and even then most TVs and devices don't have a JellyFin app.

Remote play you can’t unless you want to open your network up to the internet,

That's absolutely wrong. You can remote proxy the same way they do, sure to the edge. you can open just the port and sandbox the container. There are ways.

and even then most TVs and devices don’t have a JellyFin app.

Almost every streaming device outside of TV's are covered and many tv's already support it. Every roku and android tv support it, along with most samsungs.

Tell me, are you guys getting paid by a plex PR firm or something, you all feel lots of ways about things with very little information and tons of white lies.
