Others have pointed to the very slow development pace. I’ll point out something else. When I was first starting out with desktop, Linux enlightenment 16 was one of the desktop options but apart from looking very ‘different’ to KDE or Gnome, it was damn difficult to get it to look anything other than default. Other desktop managers came on in leaps and bounds but enlightenment just stayed where it was and from what I can tell still is where it was. Meantime, kde and gnome have had multiple major versions and forks. These days I use either xfce or cinnamon, depending on whether hardware acceleration is available. Fundamentally I want my desktop environment to be a launcher for my applications and a way to manage my peripherals and UI preferences. I don’t want to be looking at it or dealing with it or spending time thinking about it. I suspect that enough other people feel the same way

I think they might be trying for more than just one up

I have a Rocku streaming stick and it won’t work without an internet connection

Maybe they unzipped the archive? /S

This sounds like a client problem. Modern Lemmy has community blocks as part of the insurance user profile. Have you tried web client or another app?

Why not use GitHub for notes storage? That’s what I do

Unless you have some actual data to back this up then, yes, this is personal bias. I’m my own case I have:

• A personal account with three calendars
• A shared Google account with two calendars
• Read only access on someone else’s account calendar

Don’t forget that there are any number of public calendars that you can share to your Google account, e.g. ‘public holidays’ or events groups

Ok so almost 20 years ago, great. What about now?

Notably absent from your setup is Linux. Did you try that for your server?

If you’re transferring Linux to Linux then I really wouldn’t recommend samba. Why not SFTP/Rsync? Compression, and error checking built in.

Looks like it’s too easy to delete. I click on the link and I get a not found exception

Welcome

Depends what you want to play it on. In my house we have:

3 laptops 2 tablets 2 mobile phones (1 android, 1 iPhone) TV

Not all these devices support local storage for music and it’s a pain to sync files between them. With Jellyfin the complete library is in one location with a consistent interface. It can also be made available remotely if I choose.

Ok. I missed which sub I was in, sorry. There is a Linux desktop Jellyfin app but I haven’t used it myself. In my own case I am running Jellyfin on Linux. I use various clients, including web browser (laptop), Android and Roku (TV) and find it works really well. In the past I had tried with the ‘connect directly to the server’ route with XBMC (as Kodi was called then) and it never worked well, with similar issues those described in other comments.

Well if you want a windows pc app there’s this. There’s a list of official clients but it sounds like you already know it

Sorry but it doesn’t sound like you know what you’re talking about. Jellyfin is a server. Sure you can use a web client but there are many others too

We’re going to need to know as a minimum:

• Linux distribution and version
• Jellyfin install method and version
• what you have already tried- not sure where all those flags are coming from

I would also support the comments here recommending that you use docker. There’s only a small number of Linux distributions and versions where a distribution package installation of jellyfin is fully supported, but even then what you need to do varies across each one. All Linux distributions and versions support docker and the process is essentially the same for all of them.

Ok, aside from Android, I’ve yet to see any serious usage of SELinux in the real world and I’ve been working on cloud tech for years. Acknowledged issues such as complexity aside, it’s really just that much less relevant in a modern, single purpose environment such as Docker/kubernetes/cloud functions/etc

I feel this and some of the other comments in this thread are missing the point. It’s not about me and my followers. It’s about the news sources and topics that I search for or follow. They simply haven’t moved to Mastodon and where notable individuals that I follow have tried, it simply hasn’t worked out due to lack of interest. I’m not interested in the fediverse as a topic in itself, I’m interested in the topics and events I want to follow. Something happens and I can find and read and watch clips about it on Twitter. Not so Mastodon.
