no. Jellyfin aims to be totally open source.

Emby is not, and the reason it works better. They pay the licenses for mp4 etc. earn it back from those who support, but it never was truly open source.

Jellyfin is open source, and that is the reason they have "problems" (licensing issues, that you have circumvent if you look hard enough).

For set and forget, Emby and Plex are the choices. Emby does not have a bullshit money making agenda, and is the better option - currently.

"obscure Emby"... You don't get out much, do you.

Emby is a direct competitor to Plex, and its better. It doesn't require and internet connection to work, doesnt force signup, its completely self hosted if you want. The dev is responsive, bugs are fixed quickly.

It does have subscription options if you want, none are required for full functionality.

Emby is not FOSS, but neither is Plex.

$203M in one licenced transaction. Selling their data to Google. No one is falling for this shit.

Google have admitted it.

What they are not admitting to (and never will) is that its their incompetence that allowed it.

I agree, it will take a lot of work, and I am all for balance where an AI prompt is ambiguous and doesn't specify anything in particular. The output could be male/female/Asian/whatever. This is where AI needs to be diverse, and not stereotypical.

But if your prompt is to "depict a male king of the UK", there should be no ambiguity to the result of that response. The sheer ignorance in googles approach to blatantly ignore/override all historical data (presumably that the AI has been trained on) is just agenda pushing, and of little help to anyone. AI is supposed to be helpful, not a bouncer and must not have the ability to override the users personal choices (other than being outside the law).

Its has a long way to go, before it has proper practical use.

Given the shenanigans google has been playing with its AI, I'm surprised it gives any accurate replies at all.

I am sure you have all seen the guy asking for a photo of a Scottish family, and Gemini's response.

Well here is someone tricking gemini into revealing its prompt process.

You need physical separation. One NIC is for LAN, the other is for WAN.

After that, its up to you. You can Put the LAN to a switch for connection, fine.

But you must isolate the WAN and LAN so the firewall (like OPNSense) can direct traffic appropriately.

If you want to have a "DMZ" then you would need a third. (DMZ as in demilitarized zone, is an "untrusted" but available to WAN network, IE its not generally accessible to the LAN.
