Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn't be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

Yes really. You know how much I paid, initially, for Jellyfin, et al, and had them working in an afternoon?

Oh, and was that software available in 2013? No? Right, you are just throwing shit against the wall because someone pointed out that Plex was the best software we had, for a reasonable price, for 10 years or so.

You're the one who mentioned 2013. My point in the original comment was about now. It wasn't mentioned explicitly but I meant it

always worth the extra effort

Here I am thinking always means past, present, and future. What a fucking idiot I am 🤦‍♂️.

Hey man why the rudeness? We're just trying to have a conversation ..

I think that person is a troll. I’ve seen him post inflammatory shit elsewhere.

Jellyfish is a much better option now, by far. It it’s not a decade ago right now so I’m not sure why he’s so hung up on that?

Edit: yeah look at his stats hahaha. He’s also replying with an alt account

Either a troll or a just man child

Jellyfin wasn't even around when I bought Plex. I don't even think emby was and if it was it was nowhere near as good. So yes Plex has served me well over the years. I am worried about it's future so have jellyfin all set up in parallel but it still has some show stopper bugs for me to totally migrate over.
