I can’t believe this Is the supposed high level of discourse on lemmy
Lemmy users and AI have a lot of things in common, like being confidently incorrect and making things up to further their point. AI at least agrees and apologises when you point out that it’s wrong, it doesn’t double down and cry to the mods to get you banned.
AI doesn’t lie, it just gets things wrong but presents them as correct with confidence - like most people.
As someone on Lemmy I have to disagree. A lot of people claim they do and pretend they do, but they generally don’t. They’re like AI tbh. Confidently incorrect a lot of
It completed the task, it was just wrong.
So AI is just like most people. Holy cow did we achieve computer sentience?!
Lemmy admins/mods are even more heavy handed than Reddit ones from what I’ve seen in the mod logs - especially around transgender topics. There is seemingly no discussion allowed, only echo chamber agreement.
Like if you said that you agreed with the UK Supreme Courts ruling on biological sex and sex based spaces, you’d probably be banned for being “transphobic” on many communities and instances here.
Some of Lemmy appears to be Reddit admin/mods but dialled up even further to the authoritarian side, which I didn’t think was possible haha
How are these people losing access to their MS accounts on their computers?
20 years, oh well you showed me. They’re definitely the ones to blame for the current situation. Better keep voting for the current lot, they’ll fix it this time im sure.
Jellyfin isn’t yet. It will if they ever want to actually compete and make a living from it.
It’d fit the privilege of using someone else’s software.
None of this says “manufactured”.
What was the bribery?
Adding extra tiers that only the people who already bought a Plex pass would buy? If you run a Plex server and haven’t got a Plex pass by now, you were never going to unless they did what they’re doing now, as it’s basically feature complete.
You don’t really seem to understand that businesses need revenue and profit to survive, publicly traded or private. You’d rather see Plex die than have their most hardcore users have to pay a tiny fee?
I really don’t give a shit if a corporation needs more revenue to satisfy their infinite growthTM.
Oh so they don’t deserve to be paid for their work, the only reason they’d be after money is for “infinite growthTM”?
What’s not fine is taking something away people used to get for free
I agree that’s never good, but what’s the alternative? Go out of business? Insert ads into your streaming of local content? Another way rip look at it is that they’ve been giving away their product for free due the last 10+ years that they should have been charging for.
I mention JellyFin because at some stage it will become a business and they’ll start charging too, or it will get left behind because it’s free. People can fork all they want, but businesses that provide services can’t do so for free for eternity.
Is there even anyone that runs a plex server who doesn’t have a lifetime plex pass these days? I’ve had one for 10+ years at this stage. I bought it to support the devs as they made this amazing software that I’ve used for probably hundreds of thousands of hours of streaming from my server. I paid like $100. I pay less than that much in 1 month to my ISP.
IMO it’s a fair change, because the product has always been worthy of being a paid product.
People are free to go elsewhere, but they’ll quickly realize that the one off plex pass price is cheap for what you get.
But your “evidence” isn’t indicative of all “right-wingers”. It’s some small study of “homophobes”. Many on the left are homophobes, seemingly more and more these days as “trans rights” and gay rights don’t mix very well.

Nah. How would you get Uncle Bob to use tailscale on his PS5 to watch Jellyfin, for example?
Ok so you missed the point.
Democrats have been in charge for 30+ years. They’ve been in charge and helped create these problems. Do you think they will fix them?
Republicans didn’t get CA into this mess, Democrats did.
“Shitty move by a corporation”? You mean requiring the person that’s using their flagship all encompassing flagship software product to pay a one off fee? A one off fee that seemingly most people who host a Plex server already bought?
Software costs money to make and maintain. You’re not entitled to it for free. Plex’s software is legitimately great and is the only software on the market that does what it does and makes it as easy as it is.
and evidently has no costs associated to the corp
As has been pointed out many times in here, this is wrong. Plex have hardware that is used when many, probably most, people stream remotely. Also developers cost money to employ. Developers make the software that is regularly updated. They deserve to be paid, don’t they?
It is pretty damn obvious how this will continue.
So you agree the same thing will happen to JellyFin then, right? So why even bother getting Jellyfin set up now when it will inevitably happen there too?
The point is that Democrats have been in charge for 30+ years, and things have been going downhill consistently rather than getting better, so what other option do you have? Just keep voting for the guys who have been in charge while cost of living spiraled and the housing market went insane and homelessness skyrocketed etc? What good is that doing?
Google and others used Reddit data to train their LLMs. That’s all you need to know about how accurate it will be.
That’s not to say it’s not useful, but you need to know how to use it and understand that you need to only use it as a tool to help, not to take it as correct.
