There’s no way Proton doesn’t patch this immediately

Amazing! I don’t even remember seeing this on their road map. Caught me completely by surprise

So on Plex I just input my friend’s email address

Do you give friends and family access to your library? If so, how?

Launched in 2008…

Is it really a startup if it was started during the Bush administration?

Spotify itself started in 2006

This trick is common enough and trivial to reverse engineer. I can just purge my billion-email-address hacked list of all characters between a + and an @ and have a clean list that untraceable with your system.

Where can I find the auto reboot setting?

What if you long press power button amd select “lock down”? Does that put it in the same BFU state?

How did your boss respond?

You gotta start somewhere, man

A digital antenna

Signal or Proton Drive

This is illegal in a lot of states

Can you explain to my mom how to install tailscale on her Roku and that she has to turn it on each time she wants to use Jellyfin but then back off again when she wants to watch something on a different app?

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Very Give a Mouse a Cookie vibes when talking to someone explaining how Jellyfin is a drop in replacement for Plex when they’re on step 6 of setting up remote access

I still use Craigslist! Have alerts set up right now

Conversely, letting friends use your Jellyfin is complicated.

The networking aspect is basically the only thing stopping me from switching from Plex to Jellyfin. I got Jellyfin running and accessing my server myself, while on my home network is easy. However, when it comes to accessing outside of my network, it gets complicated, and when it comes to other people accessing my server it gets more complicated, and then accessing my own server and friends’ servers it gets even more complicated.

With Plex, all of that is super easy. I can watch stuff from my own server and my friends’ servers on any device, including a web browser, and I can tell my mom, for example, “install Plex on your Roku and tell me what email address you use to log in” and boom, she has access to my library.

Dude Facebook hasn’t been cool in a decade and it’s still very much a thing

I’ve definitely hired a plumber without using Meta
