It seems, the majority does not want it.
If ppl do not like it they can use another selfhosted from another instance. Thats what lemmy or the fediverse is build for.

Most ppl seem to agree with me.
But how would you know before watching?
"Based on the upvotes and comments" Oh then others doing the work to watch it and rate it on lemmy for you.
Imo, when a link to a video or forum or whatever is posted, then at least a summery or a discussion should be included.
No, you have not understood anything. Assuming Jellyfin would go closed source, (ignoring the GPL license and so on) you would not notice anything. Your server and service would be unchanged by this.
Emby is the best example, the community will fork it and you server lives on. Even if not, then the server and software is still yours.
If it becomes an issue, then you're in the exact same position you'd be in today if you decided to move away from Plex now.
I disagree. Right now you got time to do the research, plan the move and test it out with a demo setup. You do not know if you got the time if Plex decides to screw their lifetime users.
Yes this is hypothetical.
Brother we have the opposite problem. You are not putting yourself in my shoes, or other people like me.
Bold claim. But no i am putting myself in your shoes and yes there was also a time were i tried to work around to host mail myself. But its easy and no headache to set up.
None of those things are necessary. Like I don't even have email configured on my server because I don't need it at all except when the developer unnecessarily integrates it to the extent that it breaks it.
Depending on the view, a functioning service something like password reset is necessary. To design the software that it can ship without functioning password can or cannot make sense, depening on the design choices. Depending on what else got send via e-mail designing the software around that can be challenging and burdening for the future of developing.
If the setup required you to setup e-mail, the software and then also the developer can always assume there is a communication path to the individual user.
As i said, it can and cannot make sense, but saying
That makes no sense.
and not even trying to put yourself into other shoes just does not make sense.
Why wouldn't you give users the option to not use it?
Since then you would need to have another way to achive the goals e-mail does. Like password resets, user invitations etc. Thats all software burden for that one user that does not want it.
Setting up email is a pain in the ass, costs money, is dependent on 3rd parties, violates privacy, and is just completely unnecessary.
None of these i would actually say. To work around it you can just simply set up local reachable postfix. Done. You can setup a complete local mail server, with a few clicks.
Choose the software you want to use wisely and dont jump to the first solution you find when you are that licky about your requirements. If you are ao reluctant about e-mail and the service requires it, then maybe the design goals of the software do not fit your goals.
They went with OpenDesk, which uses Nextcloud as Cloud System.
Where have you read that they are going to switch to OpenCloud?
And for containers auto updates once every day.
Got apticron set up on my servers or similar solutions to get notified when updates are available. Then usually, from time of notification +1 or 2 days.
The discussion is about low effort Link only Video and or others Posts. If you are not reffering to them then you missed the point.
