For those who want something like Plex used to be (self hosted, simple, fast, beautiful, no bullshit spam), definitely check out Emby. I’ve been using it for years and it’s fantastic!

I use parsec to play retro games with my mates by streaming from my pc. Works really well!

Permadeath programming, love it

That is impressive. I host a fair amount at home but do rely on lots of cloud services too. My doorbell won’t ring on all my smart speakers if the internet is down!

Curry or cheese+mayo for me but honestly all of these are great

I miss FBF

Can see you from my local instance :)

Wow, I wonder how long this will last!

I’ve been using Emby for a few years after Plex just became worse and worse, relying on cloud logins and being unreliable, pushing their own junk content above my library etc. Emby reminds me of what plex used to be, it’s amazing!
