I think the idea would be, winning your Division still locks you into a playoff spot. Home games and seeding just have no bearing on your division.

I’m on Graphene and Aurora store can see all installed apps without me giving it any additonal permissions. I know because apps I installed outside of Aurora appear on the app list in Aurora.

Agreed it all really just depends on what functionality is important to you. If it was just me and my wife using it I’d absolutely be using Jellyfin. But between grandparents and small children using mine, I got so many complaints I had to turn Plex back on after a week.

Interesting, I haven’t noticed anything, in fact since I switched everything has felt faster. And I’m constantly sending large files to devices on other VLANs.

Mainly for security reasons. Both servers have some limited exposure to the internet. Are you saying doing it that way has performance implications? I haven’t noticed any problems its all fast just like before when everything was on the same LAN

I use OpenWRT on my network and each server I have is on its own VLAN. So in my case, my router is the firewall to my servers. But I do have on my todo list to get the local firewalls working as well. As others have said, security is about layers. You want an attacker to have to jump multiple hurdles.

Is there any evidence that Plex has been spying? Genuinely curious. Sure they are closed source so we cant prove they are not.

Figured it out. The flatpak version will fail to play video if you have audio pass through enabled. The .deb package works though.

Can’t the ISP pretty easily tell what website you are going to anyways? After all they are the one that ultimately connect you to the destination so they know the IP. Would just be one more step for them but they could figure out which domains resolve to that IP.

I think that this was maybe true the first time around in 2016. Trump was a brick through the window. But the 2024 election made no sense. Trumps campaign was based on hate, revenge, facisim and economic destruction. None of those values are supposed to align with your average rural republican. I also grew up around them and was raised to be a rural republican. Trumps stands for virtually none of their values. Those people changed their values this time around, including more own parents.

It’d probably different for everyone, but in my case, its smart collections and playlists. My family lives off the home screen and pretty much never venture beyond it. Jellyfin cannot do smart collections and the home screen is very bare bones and unpolished. In Plex I have smart collections and playlists that build automatically for them all pinned neatly to the home screen.

The Jellyfin clients are also unpolished in general and buggy. The server works great though. No problems with that.

Age of Empires II is my all time favorite game. Gears of War 1 - 3 are a close second.

As someone who has attempted to switch to Jellyfin a few times now, I have to agree. Its a great project and my switch would have been successful if it was only me using it. But between my parents streaming remotely and my kids, its not even remotely close to what Plex offers currently.

Are you by chance using Wayland?

Right ya at some point there will be a PlexPass Pro lol

So the flatpak version of Jellyfin works for you? I cant get it to play more then one thing. hitting the play button just does nothing.

If you are currently a Plex user i highly suggest at least putting together an exit strategy. I am in the process of it but it’s rough. In fact, i think Plex might be the last thing i replace with a FOSS solution.

I’m sure there will be a Luigi coin any day now dont worry

Sure, but I came from Windows. Is the security situation better over there? Flatpaks just work. I only install verified flatpaks, and I remove most permissions with flatseal before even launching it.

I don’t understand the hate for flatpak. I wouldn’t even be on Linux if it wasn’t for flatpaks. I tried to switch many times over the years and it was such a PITA. With flatpaks I made the switch about a year ago and it finally stuck. Even got my wife to switch.
