How do you make your devices more connected? Are there any sushis with home media server set up? How would you make it, how does the usual use case look like? Do you have any uncommon devices or cool software to support your work, gaming or anime consumpti

Well, I know of Plex that can make a server out of my PC and allow me to connect my tablet to it. Is there a free as in freedom alternative?

It worked like a charm! And was much faster to setup than Plex. Amazing. Thank you!

The spirit of juche is a strong motivation. You need buy in of most of the household for a media server, it needs updated and maintained. I run immich and a comics server. Check out awesome-selfhosted on GitHub for stuff that's ready made for self maintenance

I do this, but using my phone. All my devices are logged into Discord, so I can just send any files to my alt account and then download it from the text history from the other device.

WireGuard, ssh, Jellyfin.
>How would you make it,

>how does the usual use case look like?
the usual pattern is to buy a seedbox and run Jellyfin on it such that you can torrent a movie and directly stream from it.
>Do you have any uncommon devices or cool software to support your work, gaming or anime consumption?
I'm not sure about uncommon but I use a Steam Deck as a Jellyfin receiver, aside from it's regular duties.

I always forget just how fast USB storage is.

are you not concerned about your privacy?

I had an HTPC with Plex in like 2014 and used it to watch anime from my couch. It was kind of a pain in the butt to get it displaying things right sometimes though, especially when it came to automatically getting thumbnails and titles.
