Having strong opinions is what Graphene does. ๐
And they do seem to be an authority on all things security, so most of the time I like that about them.

Thanks for the link. I am on Graphene, and if a fellow poster in here is correct that doesn't help. Bummer.
Dang, also on Graphene...
here's a thread with official Graphene voices saying it won't happen (and why)
Right, thanks.
"authentication is not security," can you elaborate on that?
Your statement doesn't really overlap with my understanding of security, as "just access" seems critically relevant to how secure user data is, for example. Am I missing something?
EU servers might be worth something to some people, depending on where they are in the world. And while 190% is indeed "way more expensive", relatively speaking, it's still "well under" your goal of EUR 2 per month.
No harm in giving it a try, but I personally wouldn't bother with a selfhosted solution for it. Especially if you're not sure it will work out.
Well, paint me green and call me a pickle. More power to you if it works. ๐
Tangent, unsolicited:
Music lessons over video call, that has to be a real pain. I can't find it now, but there's an Adam Neely video where he talks about why online recording sessions can't work, as transmission latency works against the immediacy needed to play music together. He said it better than I can.
Except if your idea is to play in turns, but then capturing the thing you want to show... Can't you find another teacher closer to you?
Installing the Jellyfin add on into kodi takes a few minutes. Nothing much to consider, just try it and see if that changes anything.
I have a similar setup (rpi with OSMC, media hosted on file server) and prefer using Jellyfin as the source for all clients, as it keeps track of watched status across everything. It's not perfect, but better than without Jellyfin.
Thanks for the ideas. I'll consider it, although my use case doesn't really warrant carrying a router around.
