Rice Bran oil is my fave with a smoke point of 232 °C (450 °F) and it holds up a long time. I also use it for deep frying. Its not well known in the west and its really great.
I wouldn't even think about charging anyone for anything until you get it all setup and dialed in with backups, etc and are sure you know how to keep the service running.
My wife and I hardly ever watch TV outside the home. Certainly not with our phones. The only time is when we travel
However she does use tailscale daily. That was my point, that tailscale is easy for non-tech people. Sorry if that is confusing.
No shit. Is that not exactly what I have been saying over and over?
My first comment in this thread says clearly that if you want to run a pirate tv service for other people then you'll want something other than Jellyfin.
I've repeatedly pointed out that Jellyfin is great for a self-hosted home media server. If you use it as intended then its security is not an issue.
Its not for running an internet tv service for others.
I don't really understand why this causes some people to go off on a rant about how hard it is to explain a vpn to their grandmother. That's not something I've ever suggested.
Thats the concise help text to keep it short and easy to read.
The first line in the GNU Bash manual section on loop constructs says "Note that wherever a ‘;’ appears in the description of a command’s syntax, it may be replaced with one or more newlines."
Plex clearly scans your media collection and does upload the metadata and they can add more data collection any time they want.
Privacy won't matter if a major studio catches wind of this type of vulnerability and decides to start scanning for jellyfin instances. The subpoenas will come shortly after.
How are they going to scan a server on my network thats behind my firewall with nothing open to the internet?
Jellyfin is a home media server. it is great for that use case. It is easy to setup and use. Most importantly its not sending data about everything we watch to some company.
Stick to plex if you want to run a free internet tv service for your cousin and their kids and whoever else and you aren't concerned with their or your privacy.
I'm into self-hosting because data privacy is my primary concern.
You can do this easily with Tailscale or a similar wiregaurd vpn.
