I’m on @discuss.tchncs. It’s a German instance but I’m not German and it’s not been an issue.

Oh I do love that aspect of Lemmy, I just don’t want it shoved down my throat at every opportunity. I could make a post asking for windows advice and would be met with useless comments saying install Linux.

I use Linux for my media server, and I love it for that.

I tried to use Linux as my daily driver, partly due to the comments on here making it seem seamless. It was not seamless and a lot more involved than running windows for the handful of games I like to play on it.

I also like honesty and I don’t believe people on here are honest about the failings of Linux as a daily driver and that annoys me.

Exactly. They’re a little insufferable so tried to make a funny comment.

Fuck sake the Linux subs are leaking.

Thanks dude.

I am incredibly fortunate that my boss is a Saint and we literally put ourselves first and the work second. It’s a small company and we are not expected to think about work outside of work and they’ve shown time and time again with their actions that they are good people.

I just don’t have that kind of drive for coding now outside of work as work satiates that desire, which means out of work I can focus on mental health which for me comes from being outside or doing something.

I will say the past isn’t amazing as I’m quite new but has two raises and a reduction in hours in less than 2 years.

You’re right I could be helping out I mom the open source side, but I really struggle to even turn on my Pc when not working (mental health) so don’t feel I am the best person to contribute.

This is why my focus has been on getting friends and family to stop spending money on streaming services as every little helps.

You’re correct in that the only thing that matters to me is that people I care about save money. That’s it. I’m in awe of people doing more than me, but we can only do what we feel we are able. Together it all makes a difference.

My aim is to get my friends and family to stop paying for streaming services and if I have to pay for Plex to achieve this then that’s a win.

Jellyfin is nowhere near as feature complete as Plex and not by a long shot. My users don’t like the UI of Jellyfin and setting up for remote access is no trivial feat. With this in mind and my goals Plex is better suited.

So far have 8 users all saving £10-40 a month not going to streaming services.

Lemmy bring biased again?

OP literally changed the title to include iPhone when the actual title from the link says screen recording.

It’s implausible that I would pay for Netflix, Disney+, Paramount+, etc.

When I can just build a server and buy a VPN connection.

It’s futile even trying to highlight the things LLMs do very well as Lemmy is incredibly biased against them.
