Das das nicht notwendig ist, nervt mich massivst. Es ist im Nachhinein praktisch nicht mehr möglich, herauszufinden, wo eine Falschinformation her kommt, weil Artikel keine Quellen angeben.

Zumindest bei ziemlich "unwichtigen" Themen ist mir das schon aufgefallen, wenn ein Journalist eine Aussage missinterpretiert und plötzlich als Überschrift auf diversen Portalen landet. Wenn sie angeben würden, wo sie abgeschrieben haben, könnte man viel leichter Fake-News-Verbreitende-Seiten erkennen.

The dev constantly worked on it every few weeks over the last year, but just didn't build an official release, until they reimplemented all features.

Don't trust a VPN kill switch, they can fail. Bind your torrent client to your VPN network interface.

Interesting, maybe they check whether it's a domain/remote IP on the client side to prevent usage of a reverse proxy.

didn’t have to

Now you do have to, unless you pay for Plex and its convenience.

You need to properly name your media with a proper scheme (including tmdbid/imdbid).

Yes, after I set up the server properly (reverse proxy). With this change the same setup on the server side is necessary for remote streaming with free Plex.

My mum puts in the domain, username and password and starts streaming.

I don't think Jellyfins focus is currently to support irregular naming schemes. Naming media correctly with a proper scheme is the way to go.

Just so you know I wouldn't hold my breath.

Yes. There's AudioBookShelf for audio books.

Roku is also a thing in Europe.

Though I also gave up trying to set up Tailscale for people and just exposed Jellyfin (behind a reverse proxy).

"Good luck setting up remote streaming with free Plex."

Yes, Jellyfin does not forward ports for you. Same as free Plex. With this change both are the same difficulty to set up for free, the only difference is with Plex there's a shortcut: Buy Plex.

Jellyfin does not host anything. With this change free Plex users behind a reverse proxy (or VPN) and Jellyfin users behind a reverse proxy (or VPN) work the same for remote access.

The only difference is that Plex no longer provides expensive services for free, while Jellyfin never provided them.
