    I’m doing that and I’m not even short of money.

    Just sick of nothing being available when I want it, on another app, and having to scan several services to confirm that.

    With Jellyfin it’s just there. There’s no ads. There’s no “oh hey you looked away from the credits for five seconds I’ll just play something else”.

      I still don’t get how to get Jellyfin to work with the streaming part. If I have media, fine. But getting the streaming of all those or sports, ain’t happening.

      Valid, of course. Although,

      I’m doing that and I’m not even short of money.

      Among all the other reasons, I’m not short of money, but I can still use that money for other things. And honestly, even just throwing the savings down a drain at least means it doesn’t go to these companies.

      The other day my Mum was locked out of her Apple TV account for some reason, by some miracle she managed to get back on and all I could think of was how much easier this’d be if we just torrented everything and just used some Jellyfin client.
