This is the biggest weakness of Jellyfin. Native OIDC support would really be a no brainer at this point.

I look forward to hearing about the workarounds kids find.
Look no further, the workaround is the humble VPN. The kids that found that work around are 50+ now lmao
If you loosely follow the definition of social media to mean “Website where you can interact with people in any way” then yes.
But I think the average colloquial use of the term social media really refers to websites where you make a real life personal profile and share things on that profile. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. You as the individual are the focus of those types of sites.
The (original at least) point of sites like Lemmy and Reddit is sharing information where you as an individual are not the focus. Hence posting to communities rather than your own wall or profile, the use of usernames over real names etc.
If you’re a beginner and you’re looking for the most secure way with least amount of effort, just VPN into your home network using something like WireGuard, or use an off the shelf mesh vpn like Tailscale to connect directly to your JF server. You can give access to your VPN to other people to use. Tailscale would be the easiest to do this with, but if you want to go full self-hosted you can do it with WireGuard if you’re willing to put in a little extra leg work.
What I’ve done in the past is run a reverse proxy on a cloud VPS and tunnel that to the JF server. The cloud VPS acts as a reverse proxy and a web application firewall which blocks common exploits, failed connection attempts etc. you can take it one step beyond that if you want people to authenticate BEFORE they reach your server by using an oauth provider and whatever forward Auth your reverse proxy software supports.
Thing is putting the horrific privacy concerns aside it’s not like it’s a bad idea from a health perspective. Everybody being simply more aware of the things their body is doing is immensely helpful on a societal scale.
Problem is there aren’t any devices that are local only or otherwise truly private. Apple stores your data locally on your phone which is good, but there’s no guarantee it’ll always be that way.
Pass a law that protects wearable health data under HIPAA and I’d consider it.
I’m going to go out on a limb and say they probably just want a comparable solution to Ollama.
I’m just using the app. I think it’s the nicest, most functional, and best looking music app outside of PlexAmp… however I absolutely agree with you that I really really wish it was just its own app… you can make this easier on yourself by editing the quick bar at the bottom of the app. When I open the Emby app it’s one tap to get to the music and then at least I don’t have to “dig through” it to get there.
I have an AppleTV4k Hooked up to my tv and 5.1 sound system so I can Airplay to that with my iPhone. Same goes for my HomePod in the kitchen when I’m cooking. If you’re not on iOS you can also cast to any device with an Emby app but there is less flexibility there.
I am in the same boat as you in that I’d love a dedicated app, I’m just waiting for one to come along that doesn’t suck. The FinAmp project had gotten me excited since it was ostensibly Jellyfin’s take on PlexAmp but it looks god awful and the functionality isn’t there. They have a beta version that’s a complete redesign but it also sucks terribly in my opinion.
Since you mentioned podcasts, AudioBookShelf as a back end with the “ShelfPlayer” app on iOS has been phenomenal. The ShelfPlayer app even works with my Oauth connection which is so awesome. Wish Emby or Jellyfin did that lol.
Emby. It is so far, the nicest music client on iOS that I’ve been able to find.
I make only slightly less than that in American dollars and I’m not at all close to running a company. I’m very solidly lower middle class I will also not be buying a hour for another 5-6 years.
That is a very modest amount of money for his role.
It kinda seems like you don’t understand the actual technology.
Tech bro is practically a slur and doesn’t refer to “dudes that just work in tech”
I mean they’re encrypted in transit. They’re just not end to end encrypted.
Yeah it definitely does not work in this case. Spent many hours online looking through threads of people with the same problems, but no real solution. I think it has something to do with Unraids MFS implementation. Might be a little older. Only way to get it to work is have a script run every 10 minutes to check for the drive and if it’s not mounted, mount it. Works well enough.
I’m using UnRAID for storage and getting another Linux machine to mount a share on boot has been an exercise in futility so I get it.
Not if you use a vpn. Being that this is Selfhosted, the best idea is to just host your own Recursive DNS server.
Yeah the excitement comes from the fact that they’re thinking of replacing themselves and keeping the money. They don’t get to “Step 2” in theirs heads lmao.
TBH idk how people can convince themselves otherwise.
They don’t convince themselves. They’re convinced by the multi billion dollar corporations pouring unholy amounts of money into not only the development of AI, but its marketing. Marketing designed to not only convince them that AI is something it’s not, but also that that anyone who says otherwise (like you) are just luddites who are going to be “left behind”.
Airport security was nationalized as the TSA. Aside from that no.
There are tons of apps that you use that are just well packaged PWAs, packaged as an app store app
So… native apps, that interface with a PWA using a web view or something.
There’s the kicker.
Have they fixed the titles of saved links being clipped for no reason?
I found Linkwarden entirely unusable because of this and switched to KaraKeep the moment I realized they’d mastered the ancient magic of “Make sure the link titles are actually fully visible”
EDIT: It would appear not since I can see they’re clipped in the thumbnail lol. All that wasted space sitting there doing nothing when it could be… containing the title of the link.
