Went there to update my password but got reminded what a horrible experience Plex is these days, so deleted my account instead.
Same lol, using jellyfin now instead
I’ll probably get the lifetime pass after seeing how cumbersome setting up jellyfin is.
It takes fairly little effort to set up Jellyfin. I think there’s scripts these days that set up the entire arr stack for you in a matter of minutes.
I have jellyfin setup. What do you mean the entire arr stack?
They mean a script that will install tools like Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr etc
Are these things worth it? At the moment I am manually downloading what I need from Usenet.
You’re using Usenet for downloading Linux ISOs and you haven’t set up the *arrs? What on earth lol
I finished setting it up and boy this is life changing! I will have to add a few more TB to my storage!
Installing jellyfin is as easy as setting up any self hosted thing though… Just use docker compose if you want simplicity.
And secure remote access for me and my friends and family?
Wireguard is also very simple to setup. This would allow you to share other services you host in the future in a secure way as well.
Your mom’s Tizen TV doesn’t have a Wireguard or Tailscale client, so you’re going to be the person configuring her router, or setting up a Pi or something, as well as now being the designated tech support.
Should have been put in the OP because people are going to jump the gun:
While we quickly contained the incident, information that was accessed included emails, usernames, securely hashed passwords and authentication data.
Any account passwords that may have been accessed were securely hashed, in accordance with best practices, meaning they cannot be read by a third party.
Still, always good practice to change your password after this sort of leak. However unlikely it is that someone could access your account, it’s never a bad idea.
If you use a unique password and have 2FA on there’s no real need, but yeah it can’t hurt.
Meanwhile I made a post asking if plex is bad now and most people on it said “no it’s great I paid for my lifetime pass years ago and its been the best!” Yeah, we know the truth now.
Jellyfin all the way.
Seems unlikely that this happened. Most people on Lemmy despise Plex and forgive all the shortcomings of Jellyfin
What are the 3 biggest shortcomings of Jellyfin ?
So you didn’t care, just wanted to downvote. Cool.
I am curious as to why people thing Plex is self hosting if Plex can change how your server functions? I have never personally considered it self hosting but do others still think it is?
Plex is self hosting, the auth is not.
