AppleTV hardware now supports Tailscale, with exit nodes.

I am astonished that Apple allowed this blatant circumvention of region coding, but they did.

Get it while it’s hot, I guess.

    If you have experience with Jellyfin and don’t mind me asking, if i have Plex pass is there any reason to switch to Jellyfin? I have never even looked at Jellyfin but i keep seeing people talk about it as a Plex replacement.

      If you haven’t run into any concrete issues with Plex and don’t mind the cost, there’s probably no reason to switch.

      Reasons I switched:

      • I didn’t like it when Plex asked to control my user accounts. It allows them to cut me off whenever they want, for any reason. It also prevents me from using my own server in my own home if my internet connection drops, even if my server and my network are still working.
      • Plex can have issues with some VPN setups.
      • They kept moving more and more features that used to be free to paid accounts only.

        I didn’t sign up for Plex when I realized I had to pay to use media on my own network. I can use many other media players that don’t cost anything.

        Well cost is not a factor for me. I’m a lifetime Plex pass member. Probably why i didn’t notice a lot of what people are mentioning about Plex. I don’t use it a ton really anymore as i don’t watch a ton of TV and kids are grown.

        The second reason for me was advertising inside Plex, and generally a UI focused on what they want me to see instead of what I want to do. Jellyfin isn’t a commercial product so it won’t get enshittified over time.

          Third reason for me was UI, they kept changing it so that it highlights their shitty partners’ content. Very confusing for the guests.
