Yeah that’s definitely true. I gladly pay for Emby and thing it’s worth every penny for how I use it. Jellyfin has got to be the best free+open one for sure.

It is, but also incredibly quick, easy to use etc.

Everything Plex used to be in the good old days imo!

Not forgetting Emby allows either a local or a federated account!

Why does nobody ever mention Emby? To me, it’s everything Plex used to be before it got enshittified!

I use parsec to play retro games with my mates by streaming from my pc. Works really well!

That is impressive. I host a fair amount at home but do rely on lots of cloud services too. My doorbell won’t ring on all my smart speakers if the internet is down!

Can see you from my local instance :)
