Yeah, I really missed the boat getting in on it when it was $0.00...
Now I'd better get it at $0.0 before it shoots up to $0 next year.
yeah, the cynic in me thinks they’re just stoking the fomo to get more sales
So true! But I found a trick where you can get Jellyfin cheap if you buy it pretending to be a resident of another country. Here's some prices:
I paid $0.02, but due to the penny shortage it rounded down to $0.00.
In Ukraine, you'd regularly get a box of matches instead of the equivalent of pennies in small stores because they're nigh useless there
if taco johns sold it for that, it'd cost you $0.05. they round even 1c or 6c up to the next higher nickel.
