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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

there are a lot of us still on Plex that hadn't reached the threshold of issues vs effort that would motivate us to migrate to something like jellyfin.
looks like we've arrived.
Why not run both? That's what I do, then if Plex is an issue for someone I can make them a Jellyfin account
I haven't. I bought lifetime Plex Pass something like 15 years ago. A price change doesn't effect me. It's all their shitty updates and removing of features that makes me keep an eye on Jellyfin. I already have a sync setup for my watch status and a couple of my main users. Jellyfins apps are still worse.
I already have a lifetime Plex pass so this isn't an issue for me. 6 months from now when Plex decides my lifetime pass has a new expiry, then I'll be motivated.
this exactly. I got a lifetime pass in the before times (pre-pandemic) back when they were $100 bucks ish, but I know it's only a matter of time before they come for us grandfathered-in fools.
I have the lifetime pass, bought it for like $80 many moons ago.
Agreed, this is the tipping point. This is where we will see Plex start to abandon the lifetime pass in favor of "imaginary money line go up forever" subscriptions.
