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.

I agree, streaming on local network should be free, what is.

I had other reasons too, so a while back I tried other self hosted solutions and I got back to Plex, it is more polished and a cleaner user experience. I'm happy to pay for a well written software as long as it is reasonable and not too greedy.

Stockholm syndrome is a mental illness, we are glad to help you out of your hostage situation with Plex.

Asking for help is the first step. This second step is to install Jellyfin.

Should have got the lifetime! The jellyfish UI is garbage without a mouse and keyboard BTW. Make sure to get that set up as well.

No you're doing it wrong! This is a Plex bash thread! Angry face!

I mean it's a mouse cursor, it's not exactly a secret, just a limitation for a small project. I thought most here knew that lol.
