Jellyfin is pretty cool.
They have also inflated their price by the same amount, you know.
Tap for spoiler
/s
It’s because they’re having to pay the actors and writers and directors more, right?
Right?
Run less of a deficit
It went down for me cos I said fuck it and pirate everything now. Praise Jellyfin
How I justify my home lab costs. Even though I could run it much slimmer.
Yeah I’ve gone down to just paying $10 a month for a seedbox. I’ve kept my homelab costs extremely low cos I really just use it for jellyfin currently. The costs will grow though cos I’ve inadvertently really gotten into networking now but at least that’s more productive than burning my money on endlessly rising subscription fees
A rising tide drowns all swimmers.
So get on the boat. 🏴☠️
We’re gonna need a bigger boat…
I started looking for more HDDs to add to my NAS and the pricing made my blood run cold.
Yeah, my advice would always be to buy used enterprise-grade drives with SMART reports. Data center drives get swapped out for minor issues, or just for operating hours with no issues. Plenty of life left in them for home lab use, especially if you’re running something like TrueNAS with active health monitoring and load balancing.
I’m slowly migrating to used SAS drives since my NAS supports it.
My Jellyfin server’s monthly fee went up 70% too. What’s 70% of zero, again?
technically your server’s monthly fee is however much you spend on electricity for it
Which could still be zero for some people.
It is never zero, unless you steal it. If you produce it yourself it costs you depreciation of your equipment (ie you had previous investments)
You know what hasn’t increased? Me spending on streaming services.
And are subscriptions going down? 🤔
Arrrrr ye still streaming!?
The bay that bad boats stay hasn’t changed…yet.
Sometimes it’s EZ to watch TV or X if you go . TO the right place
🏴☠️
Pfft. My jellyfin subscription increased by 4,437% in the same period. I am outraged.
Everything is going up! Why don’t you write an article about why and whose at fault and how we can stop them?
They’ll raise to the maximum that people will pay. Stop paying and they’ll stop raising.
That’s weird, I still pay 3.49 or something a month.
That’s about tree fiddy!
Aw man haven’t looked at streaming prices in a bit. Oof that’s expensive
People still pay for streaming?
Cable is much more expensive
