It's the "relativity of simultaneity" concept transformed into a social domain instead of a spatial one!
Yerp. Poe's Law is a sunuvabitch.
Ironically, this kind of response is exactly what I'm talking about.
not a frothyboi sorry. unless you're encouraging other people to just open it to the internet with no security in place... that'd be a bit frothy.
Like I'm all for choices you know. But I want people to make informed choices. If I'd tried to pitch Jellyfin to my group of gamer friends for sharing media then it would have gone nowhere because it requires more technical knowledge than they possess or that I want to support. They were all able to set up free, relatively secure Plex instances with essentially no assistance.
It's only frothing if you insist that installing tailscale on your grandma's DSL modem is the best way to share home movies
Also you dont have to be lumped in with the frothing at the mouth Jellyfin users.
At this point if I were to switch from Plex I would go with Emby just because a bunch of sweaty nerds don't simp over it every time Plex comes up in the news.
This is the same business model that tech "startups" use, just at a vastly accelerated time table. Upend some existing market (in this case, several markets) by burning through cash at an unsustainable rate. Once your customers have been hooked, and/or the alternatives eliminated as competitors, you crank up the prices to try and make the business cashflow positive.
Easy, have your AI transcription agent be a third party that can consent so you have a majority! (/s... sorta)
It's definitely because of Louis. He's been doing a lot of work in the right to repair field, as well as this whole fuckin fiasco that Bambu (the 3d printer company) got themselves into by violating the LGPL license with some software. Streisand'd themselves good on that one.
