Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Congrats, that’s the kind of mentality that will make me move from Plex to Jellyfin tomorrow evening :)
Is there something similar to plex shares for Jellyfin? That's the only thing holding me back.
Yes. That's kind of the point of it... think Emby, but some of the Emby devs didn't wanna sell out, so they made their own open source version...
Technically yes. But you have to set it up yourself/it's more technical, manual and involved.
I’m in the same boat. I’m part of a big friend group on Plex which makes it awesome.
this is a big pain for me as well. So right now I still just run plex + jellyfin at the same time on my server. Locally, all over the house, I use apple tv with the Infuse app connected to jellyfin to stream everything which works perfectly, but I have family members and friends who stream from my media library outside of the house, and they all use the plex app. I'm not sure of a way to get them connected to my jellyfin library. If/when I can figure that out, and more importantly, make it dead simple for the end users, I'll gladly close down the plex server for the last time ever.
