I think they may have dropped the feature but I distinctly remember being disappointed in the feature that it wouldn’t download MP3s to your server so I’m pretty sure it existed at one point.

I think a lot of people use Tailscale and add their external clients to a dedicated tailnet. How are you hosting Plex without opening any ports though?
Honestly the writing's been on the wall for Plex for a while now. I think it was when they introduced podcasts or news or something that it first became clear to me that Plex was trying to grow beyond a software company for self-hosters and prepare themselves for an IPO or something. I still use it simply because their client availability is second-to-none and I've got a bunch of people signed up already, but I've already made my peace that the "Plex getting shittier" line and the "Jellyfin getting better" line are getting closer and closer to crossing each other.
Especially with ChatGPT you don’t really need to be that good at it, just good enough to read the script over and to know how to execute it.
Would they make it worse than watching ads?
Hey… it sorts properly alphabetically
I am not a lawyer, add salt as necessary.
There are a few instances of people getting sued, but usually your ISP will get a DMCA notice and send it to you and so long as you remove the content they've DMCA'd you're usually fine. I also believe that in Canada there's a $5000 limit to the damages they can recover so it's usually not worth it for them to hire a lawyer, which again, I am not.
Call me if you need help ;p
Yeah honestly I'd rather some VPN provider get my $15 so I can torrent in peace rather than giving it to one of ten different streaming providers so they can pay some executive to dream up new ways to extract value from me for sitcoms from the 90s.
Yeah basically all a "distribution" is is a selection of software and configurations, and they distribute (hence the name) that software and configurations as a bundle. It definitely can be daunting to learn all of this at once as a newcomer, but on the other side of that coin I've seen many people begin their Linux journey on a "beginner friendly" distribution who come to see that distro's configs as default and need to unlearn/relearn many habits as they progress through their journey. I think, too, that often people who are immersed in the Linux world don't have a great perspective on what is/isn't confusing for a new user and often end up obfuscating things with other things that are just as complicated, if not more.
I tend to agree - I have no love lost for Microsoft but I’m also willing to admit when they’ve got some good tech.
