The only thing keeping me on Plex is iOS downloads supported natively.
The second Swiftfin gets that I will be switching fully to Jellyfin
Unless Plex adds something new and exciting that pushes them beyond FOSS offerings

As much as I like my Steam Deck, replacing the battery is not as easy or clean as it should be because of the glue.
Yes I know there’s a reason they glued it, and yes its good that it is “user replaceable” to some extent, but I hope this pushes for easier replacement in the future.
I would imagine that the battery cell manufacturers also play a role here, although I have absolutely no way to back this up so take it with a grain of salt. Because 99% of consumer mobile devices have glued in batteries, it is likely that Li-ion manufacturers have adjusted their supply chain to accommodate and make it less expensive for device makers to buy batteries that need to be glued. So it would be reasonable to assume if more companies need to switch to easily replaceable (read: not glued), the suppliers would shift to accommodate and stay competitive.
Yeah I saw a post about it a long time ago on Reddit for users with lots of devices
Basically it is just setting up one or two “central devices” that know all the client devices, but not linking the client devices individually.
IE: One server is connected to your phone, laptop, tablet, desktop, etc. But the phone is not directly connected to your laptop or desktop or tablet.
To be fair I don’t actually know if this is the best approach anymore or if just connecting all of them in a mesh is better 🤷
Here is a forum post describing it.
Plex, PiHole, Photoprism, Home Assistant, Syncthing in a hub and spoke config, Caddy for reverse proxy, custom containers for: yt-dlp, restic, and rsync.
Yeah my dock is a glorified charging station. Might just sell it to be honest. I thought of using it for the TV for some party games, but even still the experience is just a bit too buggy TBH.
I think docked mode is more useful if someone wants to use their deck for occasional productivity/browsing on a monitor.
I bought a .com for like $10 CAD from Cloudflare that uses a URL not linked to me.
Maybe overly paranoid, but it also makes it easy to get SSL certificates for my lab.
Yeah and I have thousands of hours in League of Legends, but have probably enjoyed only about 10 minutes
I run everything in rootless containers using systemd service files generated with podman generate systemd
.
Podman Compose is a “community effort”, and Red Hat seems to be less focused on its development (here is their post about it).
There are ways to get it working but I find it easier to go with podman containers and pods through systemd because the majority of documentation (both official and unofficial) leans in that direction.
I don’t know how much you already know, so here is just a summary of things that worked for me for anyone reading.
Podman uses the concept of “Pods” to link together associated containers and manage name spaces, networking, etc. The high level summary for running podman pods through systemd:
podman pod create --name=<mypod>
.podman run --pod=<mypod> ...
and reconfigure until containers are working within the same pod as desired.Note: for standalone containers that are not linked or reliant on other containers, you can should skip creating the empty pod and can skip the --pod=<mypod>
when starting containers. This should result in a single service file generated and that container will operate independently.
This post goes over pods as systemd services.
This doc goes over containers as systemd services.
The Red Hat Enterprise Linux docs have a good amount of info, as well as their “sysadmin” series of posts.
Here are some harder to find things I’ve had to hunt down that might help with troubleshooting:
loginctl enable-linger <username>
or else rootless pods/containers will stop when you log out of that session.[
section of the systemd file, see ]this doc page. Podman generate systemd should take care of this.container-selinux
that has some useful booleans that can help with specific policies (container-use-devices
is a good one if your container needs access to a GPU or similar). Link to repo
Another shitty thing about Plexamp is there is no easy way to download your entire library in a converted format and auto download any new additions.
The developer said that “this is not the intended use of Plexamp”, but the reasoning is flawed IMO
