That’s overly complicated for some of the users - most of them aren’t very tech savvy, and they’re watching via all kinds of devices - TV’s, iOS, Kindle, etc.
I don’t see any major security reason for access requiring a VPN. Are there particular vulnerabilities that you’re concerned about, or just those that generally come from having a web-facing service?
A VPN would not be practical for my situation, as the instance is used by various family members and friends. I’m happy for them to use my JF instance but I’m not providing VPN services as well.
If you’re not referring to any specific vulnerabilities in JF then I feel confident there are no exceptional risks from allowing web access to JF? Just the usual ones?
Does jellyfin have known vulnerabilities for bots to exploit? It’s been up for several years with, afaik, no problems.
System has usual steps taken to harden it, JF is behind an apache proxy, letsencrypt handles ssl certs, fail2ban is running, and users are required to have strong passwords with no option to reset or self-register.
What’s the issue? I’ve run mine exposed for several years…
That would be amazingly impractical. May as well say “what if all website were forced to be .txt files”.
Most website template frameworks (Bootstrap/Foundation) etc rely on Javascript for basic UI features. Imagine having to wait for the server to toggle a simple CSS class on your page any time the user wants to view a menu, togle a button, or view a popup/modal/lightbox/whatever.
I was using TechBench to download ISO’s from MS without having to change my useragent.
Sadly it looks like the project has been retired in favour of their Files project, but trawling through that to find entries that actually have download links is a royal pain in the ass.
If anyone has a tip on easily finding the latest download for each Windows version then I’d love to hear it.

“wHAt aRe yOu 12”
Be less of a cock. Everyone was 12 once.
I pay for it.
The cost is worth the extra quality when working with others over screenshare etc. The community management features are useful. A large portion of my workflow is aided by discord and GitHub, both of whi h I pay for premium features.
I don’t expect them to provide these services for free considering the huge boost they give to productivity. Expecting them to be free is naive.
Possible, not practical.
I use substance painter and I need it to work. I don’t want to spend hours messing around trying to make it work and jumping through hoops.
Wine for DCC is great if you enjoy tinkering with pipelines rather than using them, but impractical for people who are trying to reliably get work done.
I just hope it gets the same treatment that Stargate got, with a spin-off series to really explore the interesting ideas raised in an otherwise terrible movie
Moonfall is a masterpiece and I won’t hear a bad word said against it!
You can in fact insure things that it is possible to steal. Cars, bikes, household posessions, you name it. It’s quite common.
Streaming usage per person is available via one of the stats plugins, but it is admittedly crude and missing some info (such as bandwidth used).
I’m using the android app without issues, which didn’t require side loading, but my experience with other platforms is zero.
Effort!
I don’t usually want to contribute my own opinion. I just want to read other people’s and silently judge them if they disagree with me.
This is why I use Linux, the fingerprint device wouldn’t be supported so this wouldn’t be an issue /s
Try Deep Rock Galactic! It is neither a full time job or a money sink. Any purchases are purely cosmetic, seasons are entirely free and there are regular updates.
Oh no! Anyway…
Edit: checked the IP of my seedbox and about 75% of the entries listed aren’t valid. Weird.
Yikes, how Draconian. Id be fucking pissed if someone came in and forcibly open sourced a product I had invested millions in developing.
