I've already started my journey to replace all streaming services with jellyfin anyway so i will be cancelling mine too.
This jimmy kimmel business just sweetens the deal.
got an old raspberry pi set up as a jump box with a tailscale vpn so i can remotely power up my pc from anywhere and watch anything i have downloaded. Just need to get a dedicated server and storage, either nas or internal in a larger tower. But for now its working really well.
Do you have a good, idiot-friendly, guide on how to set up JellyFin? I tried once but wasn't able to get anything to stream.
Oh! In addition, if you want to access it from a tv or mobile device you install the client on those devices and point them at the same IP and port. My lg tv has jellyfin in the store, firesticks have it, play store (i assume apple app store too) amd the server can be managed from there too.
You can set up users and allow each user to acces different content in the settings which is good if you have kids and want to keep them from watching john wick 😜
