    Went there to update my password but got reminded what a horrible experience Plex is these days, so deleted my account instead.

      I’ll probably get the lifetime pass after seeing how cumbersome setting up jellyfin is.

        Personally, I found it as easy as Plex. I started my self hosting journey with Plex and Minecraft servers on a windows pc. Now I’m launching docker containers over ssh and lxc containers in proxmox for Jellyfin. Minecraft is still the hardest thing to host lol

          Minecraft is still the hardest thing to host lol

          I’m actually considering hosting a Luanti / “MineTest” server for this experience, since my wife lost her Minecraft account / key thingy since the time we played in beta ages ago haha.

          I wonder if it’s any easier to host or not. 🤔

        Jellyfin setup is fairly effortless. They have a very long way to catch up on apps though. That’s all that’s keeping me in plex.

        Installing jellyfin is as easy as setting up any self hosted thing though… Just use docker compose if you want simplicity.

            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.
