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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Excited to see the Jellyfin UX improving - it's probably the biggest reason I use Plex over Jellyfin (not that Plex is THAT much better...)

I prefer Plex for its stupid simple "press here to share your library with your family remotely." And before the Jellyfin folks have an aneurysm, yes I know I can "jUsT uSe a ReVeRsE pRoXy" but I'm a busy guy and frankly lazy. So if Jellyfin wants wide adoption, it needs to make library sharing stupid simple.

There's a server federation feature request currently marked as planned, so some form of that is probably coming at some point!

This would be huge, one of the biggest draws to Plex for me is being able to use a single account to watch content across all my friends servers from any Plex UI (be it the hosted one at app.plex.tv or the copy hosted with each Plex server)
