Seriously rediculous, most people don’t even know if their card is Visa or Mastercard, nor do they care (because they dont know what they are or what they mean).

(This is from my experience with people i know)

Looks like a great resource thank you for the edumacation

Rip. I had a look and have never heard of their license before.

Is that repo not the code or does it have a (bad) license or something?

GrayJay platform player. I use it for youtube only but it has many sources.

Grayjay enables you to create and watch video content in your own terms, fully retaining ownership and having control over what you watch. Your content on your terms

(Not to poop on NewPipe, but this app is better in my opinion, I swapped after their player was bugged for me and I got a bit annoyed on the devs response to not adding SponsorBlock (you can say no to a feature ofc, but he decided to add reasoning that was bad))

It would likely be the same in the eyes of the payment processor. It technically is the same thing, except you must “top up” your account with money first before buying a game, instead of buying it directly.

Are you smoking crack right now? You sound like you are hopped up on something.

Luckily you dont have to give up using the fingerprint scanner if you believe in your ability to shutdown/restart your phone before you are taken into custody (it should require the passcode again in this case).

Great

Crazy because every (isp provided) router I have used has these options. They probably aren’t 100% correct all the time, but it would be good enough for children (even though you shouldn’t rely soley on filters to replace watching your kid).

True but 2 > 1

Have to agree with you. If every site just blocked the country with a stupid law like this, then the regular (regarded) folk that are gonna send over their ID the first chance they get will maybe log off their wank station and idk join the cause.

Saying that, at least ppl will be forced to use a vpn instead of sending their id through the internet if they dont comply and just block.

Valve is my choice (steam deck)

Also feels like Nintendo deserve it even less because of the recent news about ability for disabling devices (even tho the others can do the same, they dont for the same reasons).

That’s all me ur welcome gais

Found out about no build mode when I was asked to play recently and the game is, to my surprise, fun without the building.

The people who have mastered building and can create a fort around me in 0.32 seconds are cringe in my book. Not sure how that was ever deemed a fun game mechanic, it’s frustrating (to me, someone who only plays with their hands).

I would be hopeful that competitors bring the price down or even bring a much better experience with a higher price tag, which I think will only help cater to a larger audience (the budgeteers & the ballers).

Nothing will stop actual crap (e-waste level) from coming out, but I’m sure ppl match the experience to a brand name rather than a form factor.

Sorry, I wasn’t clear. When I said “why do you care?”, I didn’t mean YOU specifically with OPs potential problem of losing users.

I meant why do people in general, who self-host software for friends/family, care if their friends/family stop using the software.

E.g. I have friends on Plex, but for whatever reason, I decide I want to move to Jellyfin. My friends stop streaming my media because they dont like jellyfin for whatever their own reasons may be. I personally wouldn’t care about losing them as “users”, because it’s not like they are paying customers. I let them access my instance for free, if they aren’t bothered enough to use it, then thats on them, not me to cater to their needs by keeping Plex around.

Hope that cleared up my meaning. I wasn’t attacking you for caring with your original response.

p.s. you are at risk by hosting Plex too, just in different ways. Plex still requires your server is open to the internet, right? Even if only Plex’s servers can access it, who’s to say Plex themselves don’t get hacked. Always a risk/reward type deal with hosting software, in my opinion, either are fine to expose.

Yes, you are right, but I think my point was missed.

Theres not much reward for hackers to hack private jellyfin hosts (unless there is some big exploit that gives remote code execution that im unaware of), sure the bots will scan and try exploits on open ports, but are they specifically targetting jellyfin?

There is always a risk, but in my opinion, the chances of being hacked through jellyfin are way too low to bother with over-bearing measures, like a required vpn connection.

Running jellyfin in a secure manner (without root, only access to your content, etc) reduces the risk of much harm too.

Hm I don’t remember posting the comment you are replying to, to the one I replied to.

You are right, but I still argue that keeping Jellyfin up to date is fine, there’s no serious bugs (afaik) that will compromise your whole server for instance, so these bots have nothing valuable to exploit here.

When I say don’t post your instance url I was talking about normal people finding it to try streaming from it without auth, I think I was replying to someone else and though this was the same thread.

I find it hard to believe that there are bots scanning for jellyfin exploits, since as far as I’m aware, the exploit is for viewing content without auth. 99% of bots are scanning for old instances of wordpress or other outdated software to exploit.

If my content on Jellyfin was illegitimate, the person scanning for my files would have to prove that before they can sue, no? I don’t think this makes sense for anyone to do.

p.s. I won’t argue that YOU should setup software that you dont want to, just that this particular reason not to may be a bit farfetched.
