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.

Too little to late imo. I long switched to jellyfin and can use all the features that plexamp offered for free in various apps of my choosing

which apps? I tried jellyfin and plexamp works better than any of the jellyfin android music players I tried.

I haven't looked in a few years, does jellyfin have seeded shuffling where you pick a song and it builds a playlist around it?

Ya I'm surprised that people are advocating for Plex these days especially in a self hosting community, it's overbloated and mostly exists to force their FAST service down your throat

[–] Crow@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Plex has to be one thing where I like the bloat. It makes it feel like a fully featured streaming service that I control instead of just a fancy looking video folder.

I'm assuming cause it works good enough for most that the incentive to change it nearly none. Kinda the same deal with moving from reddit, works good for the use case that open stuff might be worse.

If Jellyfin had a good Xbox app I would switch immediately.

If you don't mind using Xbox Media Player you can enable dlna in jellyfin. It's how I typically stream to my smart tv

Doesn't hold a candle to the plex setup. I might be able to deal with it, but I would miss the UI, and my wife wouldn't go for it at all.
