Not at all. There’s a lot of high quality content, with a nice categorization and since people need to pay attention to their seeding ratio and time you often get seeds right away.

The advantage of private trackers is that:

• torrents almost always have seeds
• you can ask for re-seeds in case they aren’t
• torrents have a good quality
• you’re less likely to receive a complaint letter from copyright holders

Beware that Mailgun doesn’t differentiate between transactional and marketing emails, this could hurt your deliverability.

People should learn how to seed. If you don’t want to seed, just pay for Usenet.

And join private trackers, quality is better and you pretty much get seeds all the time.

Buy more storage, but also… join private trackers when they open signups. You’d be amazing there.

I mean, at that point everything is legal if we pretend to just send “random” 0s and 1s

A magnet link is just a hash, in theory you can’t protect a number

lemmynsfw dot com is a whole instance dedicated to that

you’ll thank me later

I like how Microsoft came up with an obscure extension for screensavers, which is just an .exe in disguise.

I mean, a server is just a PC that’s on 24/7 :) you had a server all along!

…depending on your country. Some countries don’t give a flying fuck: in that case, don’t waste money on VPNs if you don’t need it.

I’ve been collecting over 10 TB of Linux ISOs this year.

I know, for some features Plex is better, and for a very few features Plex will always be better because it’s centralized. Jellyfin, being self-hosted, doesn’t have an easy way to share and combine libraries from multiple users, and no single “login” page like Plex. This may be annoying for users, but we know all the problems that centralization comes with.

But this makes me think about the fediverse. What if Jellyfin servers could federate with each other? I wonder if anybody is working on such a project.

Edit: okay, apparently I found this feature request on the Jellyfin features tracker.

+1 for Jellyfin. Better than Plex because it’s free. Still worse on some features, but let’s hope!

Pro-tip: Plex is slowly enshittifying, a good open source alternative is Jellyfin.

They’ve seriously misread how much stupid people can be.

They can just play dumb and do as Sweden is doing. The result? Not joining the euro

I mean, Sweden is also forced to join the Eurozone, but they keep postponing it thanks to a loophole. The UK could just pretend to accept it and then do as Sweden is doing (for the time being).

And Schengen please. No more border checks going to/from London.
