Sorry, I misread. What is bad about the UX exactly? You don’t need to customize anything if you don’t want to; “it just works”. And I dont follow you on how having the option to customize things makes it a bad user experience. You’re assuming the native UI is bad for some reason.

I’ve used Plex a lot too back in the day but there’s nothing it provides that Jellyfin doesn’t do out of the box + self-hosted + for free.

Man I’ve been looking for this exact sort of project for ages. Thanks for sharing, OP!

You can change the UI design to whatever you want with a custom CSS. Can make your own or there’s a plethora of themes on GitHub. I remember trying one that replicated the Netflix app, and don’t hold me to it but I think I saw a Plex one as well.

Also, regarding the metadata, there are options that auto populate it for you. Idk how it does it, but my haphazard library of torrents all had accurate metadata AND it downloaded the subtitle files as well.

I tried Jellyfin two years ago and was so fed up troubleshooting the installation that I swore it off. Tried it again a few months ago and it worked flawlessly! Now I host movies, shows, music, ebooks, and audiobooks for a handful of friends and family. My jellyfin instance is probably siphoning $120/month from Netflix’s subscription revenue lol

Three of them in government have done it now. Elon did it a few weeks ago, it was widely condemned, and then two other losers (Steve Bannon and another figure who’s name I don’t know) did it at CPAC in the White House just the other day. You’re being disingenuous by refusing to look into it — claiming its leftist rhetoric before youve even looked for yourself — but nonetheless engaging in discourse with us about it. Why won’t you at least go look? Then we will have something we can talk about

Same with my partner’s American family. They dont believe a word about what’s happening. And if we can’t turn the domestic terrorists in our homes back to reality what chance do we stand turning back the country.

The Dataview plugin is the most critical one. You can create queries with the metadata in your notes (YAML frontmatter and # hashtags). If that sounded like a bunch of non-sense I highly encourage you to dig into it, because I had no idea what those words meant either but it took my note taking to a new level. I think of my Obsidian vault as my second brain.

Below are some cool examples of vaults that you can click through. Also note that because the obsidian pages are in markdown format you can use the Jekyll engine to directly turn them into web pages without any coding (this is how GitHub Pages works)

If you know how to do a bit of coding (or use ChatGPT) you can incorporate APIs from other apps in your obsidian vault. Maybe you want to make a fancy home page that displays all your tasks from ToDoist, alongside the RSS feeds to your favorite podcasts and YouTube channels. Maybe you are tracking your habits and using DataView to compile all relevant instances of #habit tags into one calendar for a birds eye view.

Its a staggeringly powerful app. Utilizing the markdown format and the Dataview plugin to create queries with metadata in your notes allows you to build INSANE knowledge management systems.

Take a look a SyncThing! It’s a free FOSS app for syncing files and is available on all devices, and it’s all self hosted. I initially used it for Obsidian syncing, but it’s proved incredibly useful beyond that

General Brown was abruptly dismissed as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff on February 21, 2025 by President Donald Trump. Trump subsequently announced that Brown would be replaced with John D. Caine, who did not meet the legal prerequisites for the position, and who, according to Trump, had pledged “I love you, sir. I think you’re great, sir. I’ll kill for you, sir.”, while wearing a MAGA hat.

What the hell is Canada supposed to do if Americans roll up on the borders. What the hell can the Canadian military — or the American people for that matter — do if they forced Canada to capitulate or face a nuclear threat? That might be an alarmist what-if… but is it, really?

On an unrelated note, that thumbnail image looks fairly convincingly like pixel art until you zoom into it. Conversely, the pixel art people are making with comfyUI and LORAs (locally) is insane. I messed around with it and you can generate 2d and 3d game assets of anything you can think of.

you’re not my dad

… are you?

The cognitive dissonance over at r/conservative is showing cracks over this one. Same with the “dictator” comments about Zelensky. You can make MAGATs believe a lot of things, but telling them that, actually, Putin is the good guy, and Nazis are pretty cool, is a hard sell.

Unfortunately it’s likely going to take more than just electing a nice guy for USA to earn back its status as a trustworthy ally. When the country can just go rogue every four years, making threats against allies and backing out of agreements — and half of the country is so nationalist that they applaud it — you can’t really establish a basis of trust.

Your country is under siege. If control isn’t regained, the America we once knew will be as history as the Weimar Republic.

They work well on desktop and mobile (firefox). As the other replier stated, you may want to avoid using multiple ad blockers (decentraleyes, privacy badger, and ghostery) alongside UBlock; and NoScript’s functionality can be achieved with UBlock.

Lol the name came from a ironscape clan member from my osrs days. I don’t suppose that’s you?

For those who still need to run Windows, I recommend that you utilize the Windows 10 LTSC IoT iso (can be found online; make sure you verify it with a checksum from microsoft) as it will receive security updates until 2032. You can debloat the iso significantly using this guide, though be warned that it is very easy to break and you may need to re-modify and re-install it to fix any weird errors that you introduce. Mine works great, totally removed defender, all telemetry I could find, etc, but my BitLocker doesn’t work lol.

If you need help give me a shout. I wont share an ISO because tbh you shouldn’t trust a stranger for that, but if you have questions I’ve done this about 12 times for myself and others
