This is off topic, but toms hardware is one of a growing list of pages using “ad recovery” services that intentionally break their own page and then blame DNS-level filters for the problem. It’s disingenuous at best and I really don’t think a site willing to employ a such deceptive tactic should be allowed to get page views.

Seconded.

Aww man, someone nabbed Tinytopia already. It looks really neat!

Wow, what pioneers. What titans of the tech industry. So brave of them.

It runs fine under Proton. Heroic Games Launcher lets you claim the free games using a web wrapper.

Enderal. Which is… a skyrim mod. Although calling it a mod does it a disservice, it’s a whole new game.

It’s definitely because of Louis. He’s been doing a lot of work in the right to repair field, as well as this whole fuckin fiasco that Bambu (the 3d printer company) got themselves into by violating the LGPL license with some software. Streisand’d themselves good on that one.

Ironically, this kind of response is exactly what I’m talking about.

It’s only frothing if you insist that installing tailscale on your grandma’s DSL modem is the best way to share home movies

Also you dont have to be lumped in with the frothing at the mouth Jellyfin users.

At this point if I were to switch from Plex I would go with Emby just because a bunch of sweaty nerds don’t simp over it every time Plex comes up in the news.

Less mentioned downside - digital rights management is significantly degraded in linux. Most commercial streaming apps/sites will work but but only at SD or 720p.

It’s a swordfish, get it?

This is the same business model that tech “startups” use, just at a vastly accelerated time table. Upend some existing market (in this case, several markets) by burning through cash at an unsustainable rate. Once your customers have been hooked, and/or the alternatives eliminated as competitors, you crank up the prices to try and make the business cashflow positive.

On my parent’s it doesnt render anything at all. Just shows the wallpaper.

Roku has had a big ad on the side for a while now? I’ve been blocking it with DNS.

“Extremism”

This.

Securely sharing is simpler on Plex. I can invite anyone with just an email and they have near instant access to an HTTPS-encrypted service. I don’t have to deal with setting up a VPN, reverse proxy or ACLs (in the case of something like Tailscale).
