I really like this # idea. I’ve also taken to holding off on adding sudo when deleting privileged files

Most reached EOL in may of this year.

I know I was having issues trying to transcode media the server wasn’t able to transcode. I didn’t know it wouldn’t transcode period if device could handle it. I feel like I was always transcoding no matter what but maybe not the case. I certainly would not consider myself an authority on the inner workings of Jellyfin

I see what you’re saying. I don’t really mind doing the transcoding but I’d never looked to turn it off. Maybe it’ll be a feature added at some point.

You may disagree but I’m of the opinion that making an open source version of an app is enough of a reason to warrant it’s creation but to each their own of course. Thanks for sharing your input.

I’ve never used Plex. I’m curious what issues you’ve had with jellyfin that makes you say this. I’ve had nothing but positive experiences with it, along with a friend who’s been using it a lot

I thought manuals were a type of car transmission

I only use windows at work rn so I don’t really get into the guts of it much. It works well enough most of the time but I’ve had to adjust and most of the adjustments are dealing with annoyances like the start menu. I also can’t just install arbitrary apps to solve all the issues. I appreciate the points you’ve made but I’ve largely found the usability of this OS to be meaningfully worse than Windows 10 and incomparably worse than my recent linux experience.

I haven’t really had any of these issues. Those would certainly be enough to push me away. I know I was having somewhat similar issues with consuming the content before enabling hardware acceleration. I haven’t tried changing audio tracks so idk there. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having a bad time

Curious about your issues with jellyfin? Ive been using it basically issue free for a few months

I take issue with the settings menu still relying on the old menus while having shuffled things around so I’m forced to look for settings. I don’t really bother with tabbed file explorer because it doesn’t bother saving my last open folders. I can’t speak to dark mode.

I can say that the start menu is horrendously slow, it can take up to 5 seconds for it to load. Sometimes keystrokes disappear in the start menu only to magically appear some time later. They made the right click menu worse and only changeable in regedit. They made RDP credentials only saveable using CMD. They removed vertical taskbars. There are a lot of issues in going to windows 11 for me.

I’m sure there are some improvements but at work we have a wiki page on how to unfuck up windows 11 so it works how you expect it to.

Ctrl + alt + t opens a terminal in most DE I’ve used as well

As a user you can’t access the filesystem. It’s completely abstracted away. At least this was the case for the iPhone 6
