I’ll probably get the lifetime pass after seeing how cumbersome setting up jellyfin is.
Personally, I found it as easy as Plex. I started my self hosting journey with Plex and Minecraft servers on a windows pc. Now I’m launching docker containers over ssh and lxc containers in proxmox for Jellyfin. Minecraft is still the hardest thing to host lol
I’m actually considering hosting a Luanti / “MineTest” server for this experience, since my wife lost her Minecraft account / key thingy since the time we played in beta ages ago haha.
I wonder if it’s any easier to host or not. 🤔
Jellyfin setup is fairly effortless. They have a very long way to catch up on apps though. That’s all that’s keeping me in plex.
Installing jellyfin is as easy as setting up any self hosted thing though… Just use docker compose if you want simplicity.
And secure remote access for me and my friends and family?
Wireguard is also very simple to setup. This would allow you to share other services you host in the future in a secure way as well.
It takes fairly little effort to set up Jellyfin. I think there’s scripts these days that set up the entire arr stack for you in a matter of minutes.
I have jellyfin setup. What do you mean the entire arr stack?
It’s a bunch of programs for automated torrent downloads. No idea what it has to do with setting up jellyfin, though.
They mean a script that will install tools like Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr etc
Are these things worth it? At the moment I am manually downloading what I need from Usenet.
Personally it’s quite nice. I just request what I want to watch and the system grabs it automatically. It can download from Usenet too.
Cool! I’ll try to look into it. Thank you!
