Sure...But proxmox is already there. It's installed and it runs 5VMs and about 10 containers. ...I'm not going to dump all that just because I need docker...and I'm not getting another machine if I can get use that. So...sure, there might be overhead, but I saw some other people doing it, and the other alternative I saw was running docker on a VM...which is even more overhead. And I fear running it on the proxmox server bare metal, it might conflict with how it manages the LXC containers.

While that sounds nice and all, I've had playback issues before...not to mention it's bulkier than a chromecast, and I'd still need a remote...There's no Android or Android-TV solution that's privacy friendly right?

Ok...I have an old chromecast that I use when I travel to connect to my jellyfin server. It's already giving me crap in the home screen for movies and series on platforms I don't even have. What would be a cheap and portable device I could use when I travel so I can hook to any TV?

Thanks!

Would be great if they also countered Google's dark patterns in the notification bar toggles and revert back to the old working design. I'm not saying it's even close to the same priority as this. But you know... Google's decisions are downgrading the platform and the experience.

I... Don't think lemmy.world said it. I think they took more of a "wait and see" approach, in contrast to most other instances. Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

If they keep doing it is because it keeps working

Well it's a Jellyfin server. I bought a CPU that CAN transcode, for this specific purpose. Without hardware decoding, CPU usage scales quite quickly, but it could still hold 3-4 streams at 60fps I believe. At any rate, I bought this 2nd hand microPC with the specific purpose of being a Proxmox server with Jellyfin transcoding. And so, between having to consider further hard drive upgrades, or using the transcode function...I kinda choose the cheapest one since it's at hand.

Thanks, and sorry for the slow response! I’m thinking as something to wear during the commute, so I guess these wouldn’t cut it with the mic in there. My bad for not mentioning it in the post, didn’t consider the existence of gaming headsets!

Thanks...I though you were the same poster of the original Swedish link

SoundCore Q30

Yup, it's the first time I heard of these, but in this thread it's come up several times. I'll definitely be checking these.

Thanks, but in this case noise-cancelling would be a need. They're needed for the daily commute and for airplane travel. So these would be a no-go.
