I lied, there’s no Netflix.
Instead I have a local Jellyfin server with twenty terabytes of pirated media.
Well why didn’t you lead with that?
Woops.
Ok first of all you people have too much money to spend on hard drives.
Secondly, it’s not curated if you are downloading everything ever.
I’ve got 8tb full of a 12tb raid array and that already feels like enough for a lifetime.get 2 for redundancy and better read speeds, that’s ~$670 and some space to spare (they’re 26 tb each)
storage isn’t that expensive nowadays, and density is still going up. Seagate is expecting to be able to make 80 TB drives in the early 2030s
Damn, I really need to up my harddrive game. My biggest drive is 4TB.
There are people with actual Petabytes of data at home. 20TB is nothing if you’re storing 4K
Fuck yes, I wanna go to her house

I’m still working on the download part, but I’ve crossed the mark on upload.
Damn you must have some really popular seeds for that ratio.
Dark Matter (2015) is doing most of the heavy-lifting.
Stop, I can only get so erect!
Problem solved 😌
“Rookie number” — the data hoarder community, probably
I’m at 40tb used right now. 20tb to go before I get to buy even more space!
It’s all fun and games until all the drives have 70,000 hours on them.
This is literally me lol. 20tb and all. 😂
On my way
I’ll send you a marriage contract shortly.
If I was rich I would get two of the Seagate 24TB drives for my jellyfin server. I have only 5tb external drive that is almost full. Like 50GB left.

That’s just a normal thing storage devices do. Data always ends up adjusting itself to larger storage.
Yeah I can usually free up a Terabyte of my 16TB array relatively pain free…
Also way cheaper than upgrading.
I thought the same, I feel called out
I am… oddly aroused.
i’d fall in love instantly if this happened
It’s me, I’m the Xenia. XD
Curated content, you say?
Right? I can feel bad about not offering my family the same quantity as the mainstream services, then I remember that while I don’t have 40,000 films I do have 5,000 handpicked by me, so no trawling. Also, I’ll never make my friends feel dependent on me as I make their home theatre experience better for free
5000 is more than what Netflix offers. They have about 3500 movies.
I’m really against the whole netflix experience. I don’t want a GUI getting between me and my media. Just VLC for me, thanks.
I’m interested in using VLC more for home viewing. Right now it’s my only option for playing my imaged DVDs on the fire stick. The interface is decent but I’m wondering if you know of a more normie friendly way to select titles, other than browsing a network share.
Not really, that’s what I do.
I have jellyfin for group viewing and sharing, but it’s actually just a bunch of symlinks to an NFS share, which is also exposed as a fileserver (caddy with basic auth)
So I can stream via jelly clients, or remotely stream/download files directly, or read straight off my local NAS.

Ah, I see, fellow
telnet starwarstel.netenjoyer.When did it stop being
towel.blinkenlights.nllol. I should have said a second GUI.
If they want a specific movie you could just add it. That’s how I do it, whenever we remember some movie or find something new I just add it. No need to have everything just what you actually want and if it’s good I’ll keep it there instead of deleting it when cleaning up from time to time.
Yes! I have recently set up a Jellyseerr (Overseerr fork) service which really helps, as they can browse from a load of categories and I get their requests on my account and get it to download to the right directory.
Jellyfin and chill, pls.
