man I’m so glad I’ll never use windows again.

thanks for calling out this stupidity.

it’s so hard to find legitimate trolls to block.

you cab use it unless you have it.

get what you need, take what you want.

what a fucking moron.

they didn’t give up on it.

they never bought in.

swear to god I’ll bring rotten.com back and fill it with the nastiest filthiest autopsies I can steal.

I’ll make these fuckers take me to court and force them to spell it out that they “find autopsies sexually stimulating”, and then I’ll call them sick fucks.

My original comment wasn’t telling anyone what to do.

I was telling the jellyfin community what I was going to do. y’all didn’t like that too much though did ya?

then you came at me calling my comments asinine while attacking my position that the community is toxic as fuck by telling me to “ignore the problem”. yeah, thanks for telling me what I should do.

when I pointed out that your comment is exactly the kind of toxic shit I can’t support, what’d you do? you doubled down and told me more of what I should do!

thanks, if I need bad advice I know where to go now.

the only time I said what anyone should do, it was addressed to the whole jellyfin community as a fucking favor because y’all are a toxic bunch of snowflakes that are clearly too emotionally immature to understand you’re alienating outsiders and killing the jellyfin brand.

I guess the point that you’re not understanding is that I expect Plex to abuse me. I know what their motives are. All I know from jellyfin is that if you even mention “Plex”, the community will come out of the basements they hibernate in and shit down your throat for even suggesting anything other than jellyfin.

Jesus fucking Christ you guys! look at yourselves! how about y’all read your comments to your spouses or mothers and see if they think you’re a bunch of toxic assholes. you obviously won’t listen to reason from a stranger.

shit man, I don’t even fucking care about your asshole project enough to get this deep in comments. I just believe that FOSS deserves a better community than these shitheels.

yes please explain to me what I have to do.

that’s not toxic behavior at all! /s

I’m not a member of the Plex community, never have been. I expect the service to be tailored to make the company a profit. That’s literally all I can trust them to do.

so what can I trust the jellyfin community to do? right now they’re toxic as fuck towards me because I’m telling them they’re being toxic as fuck. the software they built could be the most beautiful and elegant solution in the whole world. but…I’ll never know that because I can’t get past being vilified for calling an apple an apple.

Jellyfin, get your shit together or you will never get past the whole “Plex is shitty” phase.

winners don’t care about winning, they only care about being the best they can be. maybe focus on more of that and less shitting on Plex for doing whatever they’re doing.

You can just not care about the community and everything keeps working. A “shitheel” company will do everything to make your experience suck.

And a toxic shitheel community won’t do that?

it’s comments like yours that makes me feel vindicated in choosing corporate over FOSS, and I know I’m not the only one.

Thanks for doing your part in proving my point.

it’s almost as if a small group of people are desperately trying to make people change to jellyfin.

6 months ago I was seriously looking at jellyfin as a Plex alternative. Now? nah, I’m good.

I’ll take a corporate shitheel company over a roach infested toxic community any day.

the more they push the less I want anything to do with jellyfin, and the leaders at jellyfin should be made aware of what their community members are doing.

highly recommend using containerized torrents through a VPN.

I have transmission and openvpn containers. when the network goes down transmission can’t connect since it’s networked through the ovpn container.

once the vpn is restored, everything restarts and resumes where it left off.

ever since I’ve had this setup running, I haven’t had a nastygram sent to me.

sounds like a perfect setup for a torrent farm. they can’t stop you because you’re forced to pay for it.

fuck no we aren’t.

anyone who says otherwise can fight me.

“gampa, did it hurt when you died?”

Hey there, buddy. That’s a big question! When people get very old or very sick, their bodies sometimes get tired, like a toy that slowly stops working. Normal people might go and buy a new toy from Amazon with all their great prices and exceptional customer service but your old gramps couldn’t do that. When it’s time to go, it’s usually peaceful—like falling asleep after a long, fun day on a nice comfortable Saatva bed. I don’t think it hurts, because our bodies know how to let go gently. What’s important is all the love and happy memories we share. You can even go back and look at all our wonderful memories from the good people at Instagram. And even when I’m not here anymore, that love stays with you forever. Would you like to send some of those memories to your local Walgreen’s to print?

you’re looking at one aspect in a negative light.

on the flip side to your argument, maybe op travels by train 8 hours a day (4 there 4 back) and they only have one of those tiny little trays as a desk. I’d rather do something unusually instead of doing nothing boringly.

besides, wth have you done that makes your shitty opinion valid in this context?

I wrote a 16 page term paper on a Note 1 on a train while going back and forth to school. I also wrote some crappy android apps on the same phone for school. all on a crappy bluetooth keyboard and a 5.3inch screen. I think that gives me some idea of why such a thing exists.

want to know why I did it?

because:

1. I could and so I did
2. I had to because I was broke af in college and didn’t have a device at home that could do half the shit my phone could
3. I had the time on the train so why not use it

so, to put it bluntly, I think it’s pretty fucking applicable here.

we don’t do things because we need to. we do things because we can.

playing doom on a iPod or Zune is completely awful. so why does it exist? because someone willed it into existence. why? because they could.

is that like onlyfans but like linkedin?

Same here. I made my bed with it though.

I have a “work phone”. it sits at my desk. I’ll answer it when I’m there, otherwise I don’t get called.

I can’t (pronounced won’t) install any work shit on my personal phone because I run e/os and it isn’t compatible with their policies. 🤷 oopsies.

fuck em. I’ve been giving them 4 hours a day for months now, after giving them over a decade of 15-18 hour days.

great, now do teams.

nobody should have to use that ugly useless piece of shit for anything.

sounded really dismissive to me.
