Does the other iOS user have 18? I'm the 1 android user in a 3 person group chat and I'm wondering if I should try to get one of them to update.

Potential health problems of mouth breathing or taping to combat mouth breathing? From my reading it sounds like if you have any kind of respiratory condition - asthma, sleep apnea, even allergies then it could be risky.

(I can rarely get congested to the point of not being able to get enough air through my nose in the middle of the night without warning so I feel like I could suffocate if I tried this, plus most nights I'm able to nose breathe most of the time anyway)

Hah I wish we could ignore them. It seems to just vary from ISP to ISP in the US but our small town ISP turns off your connection and puts you behind a captive portal forcing you to click through and accept what you did wrong before your connection is turned back on.

Yes I do this. Same exact library folders so I can let my friends use whatever they prefer. If everything is named in a Plex friendly way it should just work in jellyfin.

My main complaint is when it decides to just stop casting to Chromecast in the middle of episodes randomly - then I have to open the app, reconnect, and resume.

Also I find the Chromecast controls stop responding frequently making it so I can't pause what I'm watching - it'll like disconnect from the Chromecast but keep playing.

My partner also complains about lots of bugs on the iOS app.

Our ISP sends 3 strike letters :(

Uhh don't mind me pulling my shots directly from my gaggia classic evo pro and into a 3/4 full cup of half and half...

I would just accept the terms and disable wifi, or if you don't want to double nat just use a switch and accept the terms / login on every device connected to the switch.

Is running a pds really equivalent to running your own instance? As I understand it, 2 friends running their own pds cannot federate without the centralized relay which still can't be self hosted.

I've done a backup swap with friends a couple times. Security wasn't much of a worry since we connected to each other's boxes over ssh or wireguard or similar and used tools that allowed encryption. The biggest challenge for us was that in my selfhosting friend group we all prefer different protocols so we had to figure out what each of us wanted to use to connect and access filesystems and set that up. The second challenge was ensuring uptime and that the remote access we set up for each other stayed up - and that's what killed the project as we all eventually stopped maintaining the remote access and nobody seemed to care - so if I were to do it again I would make sure all participants have alerts monitoring their shared endpoint.

I tried the .ps one and it worked for me

Federation sounded interesting so I looked at the website and it sounds like on prem can't yet federate with people using "cloud" which I guess is the hosted version - they can only federate with other on-prem instances.

It looks promising though and would be cool to host my own instance and still chat with friends.
