  • So what do they make of people like me who who use Linux on a Mac, with e.g. Colima or Rancher desktop - doing cloud/kubernetes/python development? I moved to a Mac a couple of years ago after 20 years of using Linux as my daily driver because frankly Bluetooth audio on Linux sucks and because I was tired of getting endless different video conference / screensharing solutions working at short notice for interviewing.




  • Depends what you want to play it on. In my house we have:

    3 laptops 2 tablets 2 mobile phones (1 android, 1 iPhone) TV

    Not all these devices support local storage for music and it’s a pain to sync files between them. With Jellyfin the complete library is in one location with a consistent interface. It can also be made available remotely if I choose.







  • Ok. I missed which sub I was in, sorry. There is a Linux desktop Jellyfin app but I haven’t used it myself. In my own case I am running Jellyfin on Linux. I use various clients, including web browser (laptop), Android and Roku (TV) and find it works really well. In the past I had tried with the ‘connect directly to the server’ route with XBMC (as Kodi was called then) and it never worked well, with similar issues those described in other comments.
