Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

People who bought the lifetime Plex pass, and have a huge group of friends and family already connected to their servers.
Didn't stop me.
Nice anecdote.
Didn't stop me, either.
In fact, Jellyseerr is a game changer. Wanna talk about it?
Sure! What does it do?

tldr: searches metadata websites for movies and TV shows, and then adds thing to Jellyfin.
You can even then tell your *arrrr stack

to report things that succeed/fail to external services like Telegram.

What I do find weird is actually searching the Plex server I have access to for media

Like, I could? But what I like doing is abusing another family members fibre connection to request things for both of us, that then appears in their Jellyfin magically.
Neat.
I have no issues with downloading stuff as I usually just download boxsets once a season has finished. All that is manual for me and I have no issues with that side of things. I think Jellyseer honestly wouldn't really help my issues with Jellyfin. Jellyfin has:
But since Plex is so bad on my TV, Jellyfin is still better sometimes. 😅
Yeah I was gonna say, Plex has a terrible UI and is why I stay away from that crap.
Jellyseerr thou is something even my less than tech savvy peeps I know just punch stuff into and making the Telegram channel make noises. I should really turn those notifications off.
Better than Jellyfin. What I meant by terrible on my TV is that it's painfully slow.
Is that a fork of overseerr?
Yup.
