Due to all the enshittification of the streaming services, I decided to opt out of it all by selfhosting Jellyfin with all of my media on my NAS. Get to it from anywhere with tailscale.

Depends on your HW and line speeds, if you have somewhat slow speeds you need to transcode s lot and that will hot your system quite hard.

That’s my same setup, it’s working great with the addition of sonarr, radar and jellyseerr to easily nab the files I want.

Any recommendations on tailscale setup? I’ve wanted to do this but have been weary of opening it up to outside my local network. Currently running it all on proxmox.

Tailscale is a point to point VPN so you don’t open anything to the outside.

Well Netflix is gone. Still using Disney plus cause I swapped my HBO max password for it. I guess soon I will have no streaming services on my tv at all seeing as both Disney plus and HBO are cracking down on password sharing. Shame. They had a good thing going before they all got too greedy.

Back to the high seas. It was nice while it lasted. But Gaben is right. And I havent pirated a game since he got the formula right. Netflix had it. But everyone got too greedy, created their own services splitting the products over multiple services.

It’s like Alan Wake 2. Sure I wanna play it. But until the Epic exclusive deal is over and it hits Steam, I aint gonna be playing it.

HBO is the last streaming platform I have, and I will be cutting the cord soon.

I’ve now switched to having a shitty chromebook hooked up to my TV with an hdmi cable so I can pirate anything I want when I want. I definitely recommend it, no need to deal with ads either on YouTube when not using their shitty TV app!

Can’t wait to hear John Oliver mocking his business daddy, again.

It’s a good thing I cancelled when they took away 4k playback, multi-device playback, and more so they could charge more for the same service.

I cancelled when they changed from HBO Max to just Max, and started killing all of my favorite shows.

They went from one of the only subscriptions I kept to being the fastest I ever unsubscribed.

I didn’t care much for the logo change as it’s not really a big deal. What got me to cancel was them adding ANOTHER tier for 4K and then said “no we didn’t have any fee hikes” yet they removed it from the existing plan.

There’s people who didn’t know? Netflix paved the way for this
