When my kids were younger I treated the internet like a large room full of strangers of all kinds good and bad. I wouldn’t let my 8yr old wonder around on her own there so why would I on social media or multiplayer games.

I played Roblox with my kids for years and didn’t find any shady shit. Not saying there is no shady stuff on there, but after 100s of hours either it’s suddenly gotten worse, we somehow dodged all the shady shit or the media have exaggerated the issue. Take your pick.

I played with my kids because they desperately wanted to join in on the fun but the reports of it being pedo land made me create a rule of “you only play when we play together”. We had great fun, have many fond memories of our time on there.

UK conservatives at the time were split regarding Brexit. They put the vote out to the public and the conservative party campaigned to stay possibly naively expecting the vote to be in their favour.

May well be bs but for different reasons.

Algae is an alternative fuel and has no link to fossil fuels. This takes an existing but expired fuel and extracts usable material, or so it says. In any case they aren’t comparable.

I use boost. I find sometimes videos don’t show but other than that it’s been good.

Who is “he”?

Can’t tell if sarcasm

I’ve not using a free streaming site for years, but when I did they were bags of shite. Buffering, unavailable, etc. There are apps that aggregate the various sites that try and find a wanted show on multiple sites, but they weren’t much better.

I see self-hosted streaming as just an extension of your “save videos to a storage drive” option. We are just extending the access of that to where its wanted.

I’m just using nginx as a reverse proxy. I’m actually using Emby, which Jellyfin is a fork of. I had issues with Jellyfin playback and wasn’t patient enough to fix at the time, but I’ll try again over xmas.

Pretty much. Personally, I spun up another VM and had the two running alongside each other for a few weeks. Doing it this way allows you to split the work. First get the base server up and running, do some testing and get familiar, then migrate a client.

It took more effort to get family to switch their client than it did to do the server.

Why? Plex was one of the original self hosted streaming platforms and for a long time was pretty much the only option. We have more options now, and those still on Plex, I imagine, are because they don’t have the time or capacity to perform a migration. So they stick with what they’ve got until it breaks.

Maybe this will be the one that breaks it.

I was a Plex holdout until 3 months ago. I wanted off Plex for the last 2 years but just never had the time.

For those waiting, don’t be like me, it’s easier than you think.

NUT server

It’s the United States. And don’t call me Sorey.

Cloudflare have a large international network. Perhaps some users could access sites when coming from another region

There have been legitimate reports of immigrants being caught up in this ICE fiasco because a cheque bounced decades ago.

Seeing steam at the top makes me question the list. Likely a hate of DRM rather than privacy
