Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•The book I borrowed and was reading became unavailable in the US *while I was reading it*English
2·9 hours agoI get it. I just have an entirely different workflow because my wife rewatches things, i share it with friends, and i have a moral obligation to share it with strangers.
Want to watch something > find magnet > categorize as movie or show > wait a while > watch thing > seed indefinitely for others to download as well
Or
Receive request > find magnet > categorize > inform when finished > seed indefinitely for others to download as well
Its that final step youre missing out on that brings me great socialist joy and finalizes the “owning” portion of the equation. I fundamentally disagree with streaming, paid or otherwise, because that final step where i get to share it with whomever i please.
If i bought a video game in 1999, every kid on my block had access. If i bought a vhs, same thing. Nowadays, if i spend money on a movie or tv show, only i get to watch it. Music is inherently different and video games are a bit easier to share via my steam family, but you get the idea.

22·10 hours agoI… Dont understand the problem? Like if you want to just double click a file and open in VLC, just do that? If you have any level of organization at all, you have a folder of media??
Like, i have a folder thats /media/shows. I want them in a library, so i tell jellyfin that /media/shows is my library, wait maybe 20 seconds and i have a netflix level library.
Im not fighting you. I simply dont understand why you either…
- have some level of organization and thus can point jellyfin at it
or
- have no organixation whatsoever and thus just double click to open in VLC
Update; i understand secret 3rd option of
- you simply have no media on your pc whatsoever and thus want a collection of sources to stream from
Which i can respect. Im horrified, but, i respect it.
Another glorious victory in the OS wars.
Worth noting my linux pc has never crashed out of nowhere on its own. Its usually immediately after i change something

21·11 hours agoYou point jellyfin at a folder with media, and press a button. Ideally you separate them into tv and movies, but you can absolutely just lazily point and shoot.

Tbf you can also get unlimited keys to sell and use elsewhere without issue. You’re paying for the audience, convenience and trust.
No ones stopping you from posting to itch.io or handing out USBs, but Steam will always be preferred because of the user experience.





Yeah but 4x8 workdays are gonna be just as productive as 5x8, if you factor in general mood improvements.
Using AI as a scapegoat is fine, i guess
