The problem here - it’s not me who requires access to my library, if someone isn’t willing or able to do it, I’m sorry but that’s just how it is. People should stop infantilize non-technical people, absolute majority of them is capable of navigating our world without much problems and I’m willing to help them if help is asked.

If my 60 y.o. mother with close to zero technical skills can do it with limited help (due to distance and other constraints) I’m pretty sure that majority of people with sound mind can.

The solution is mentioned already - use vpn, it will solve 90% of the problems that you can encounter. Also you can serve multiple other services this way without exposing them.

Nothing stops you from using it outside of your house.

Don’t expose jellyfin to the internet is a golden rule.

I have something like homegrown pihole (dnsmasq with block lists) , jellyfin, qbittorrent and nfs/smb share. Everytime when such a post appears there is this irrational desire to create cool monitoring and homepage and homeassistant. Never materialises into anything, after all there is always emacs that requires tinkering if needed. :3

I’ve worked in large companies that didn’t use anything oracle, also worked in one that used oracle db and that’s it, I think that oracle is pretty north america specific.

Fiber optics jumped 4 times in price locally.

FPV drones are anti-everything that moves drones.

I mean they look cool, but this doesn’t really seem useful? I mean in police operations they might see some use or extremely short and very well supplied missions.

No it’s a prefectly reasonable stance, but having wrong opinion or even thinking the wrong way is disallowed.

But it’s boring and won’t give you the feelingn of being right.

I really like software that is built from plugins, but it needs to have some stable ‘core’ plugins shipped by default, like emacs for example. Nothing by default is pretty useless but it all depends on constraints and requirements.

Re-read three times until you find two countries in the thread.

Diffefent from which one? Do you think that there are only two cultures in the world? 🙃 I don’t use google, and don’t know how relevanf graffiti is to discussion about displays in toilets.

Japan is a paradise, don’t you watch anime?
