I just wish the Dev would come up with a way to allow me to buy it without the play store.

Been browsing the conservative subreddit this morning just to see what they all are thinking. There is a surprising number of "This is a terrible idea" comments but its also funny seeing a whole bunch of republicans who now suddenly like higher taxes, inflation and stock crashes.

When you host your own Lemmy instance that means every server you federate with is going to copy its data including images to your server. That means that if you federate with someone who is poorly moderated, you can end up hosting CSAM yourself. You need to be prepared to deal with that problem.

I did it for awhile but didn't want to deal with the CSAM. Shut it down after a few weeks.

Agreed it all really just depends on what functionality is important to you. If it was just me and my wife using it I'd absolutely be using Jellyfin. But between grandparents and small children using mine, I got so many complaints I had to turn Plex back on after a week.

Interesting, I haven't noticed anything, in fact since I switched everything has felt faster. And I'm constantly sending large files to devices on other VLANs.

Mainly for security reasons. Both servers have some limited exposure to the internet. Are you saying doing it that way has performance implications? I haven't noticed any problems its all fast just like before when everything was on the same LAN

I use OpenWRT on my network and each server I have is on its own VLAN. So in my case, my router is the firewall to my servers. But I do have on my todo list to get the local firewalls working as well. As others have said, security is about layers. You want an attacker to have to jump multiple hurdles.

Is there any evidence that Plex has been spying? Genuinely curious. Sure they are closed source so we cant prove they are not.

Figured it out. The flatpak version will fail to play video if you have audio pass through enabled. The .deb package works though.

Can't the ISP pretty easily tell what website you are going to anyways? After all they are the one that ultimately connect you to the destination so they know the IP. Would just be one more step for them but they could figure out which domains resolve to that IP.

I think that this was maybe true the first time around in 2016. Trump was a brick through the window. But the 2024 election made no sense. Trumps campaign was based on hate, revenge, facisim and economic destruction. None of those values are supposed to align with your average rural republican. I also grew up around them and was raised to be a rural republican. Trumps stands for virtually none of their values. Those people changed their values this time around, including more own parents.
