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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

As long as you don't mind sharing your library with Plex and relying on them to authenticate everyone and get accounts.
I get why you are saying this, but to me that is a big negative. As long as I am going to self host, I might as well do it right and not need a paid third party I have no control over on my server.
On the other hand, I only have about 4 households I am interested in sharing with, so it was easy to configure that and be done with it. I have no desire to share to my family and they really have no desire to use it, my friends just don't care. So I can understand it was easier for me to fill my use case.
I wonder if we are at a tipping point, where someone would be willing to pay just for the Jellyfin to Internet connection (basically a plex like plugin or additional container).
