Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Plex is starting to enforce its new rules, which prevent users from remotely accessing a personal media server without a subscription fee.

Using jellyfin on Chromecast. For the past 3 weeks I'm stuck not being able to use it because some update broke subtitles support for external players. App became useless, I can't downgrade it, and the bug is still not fixed.

Not going to use Plex, just my 2 cents.

I haven't had any problems with subtitles. You mind linking the issue report you're referring to?
