    I’ll take a corporate shitheel company over a roach infested toxic community any day.

    What an asinine fucking take. Even if Plex were better than Jellyfin in every single way (it isn’t), this take would still be asinine. I mean, wtf dude. You can just not care about the community and everything keeps working. A “shitheel” company will do everything to make your experience suck.

      Meh, seems like a sensible take. Certainly better for your mental health.

      Communities matter. There’s a reason I’m not on X, there’s a reason I don’t play pubg or overwatch, toxic communities can seriously make any experience suck.

      And a toxic shitheel community won’t do that?

      it’s comments like yours that makes me feel vindicated in choosing corporate over FOSS, and I know I’m not the only one.

      Thanks for doing your part in proving my point.

        No. You know you don’t need to join a community for using something, right? I didn’t join a community for my dishwasher. Not even for most of my apps, actually. It’s very easy. When you choose corporate, you’re giving money for shit service. There’s literally no way for dissociate from that. On the other hand, you can simply not participate in a community, no one’s forcing you. It’s just weird that you’d still prefer the corporate way.

          yes please explain to me what I have to do.

          that’s not toxic behavior at all! /s

          I’m not a member of the Plex community, never have been. I expect the service to be tailored to make the company a profit. That’s literally all I can trust them to do.

          so what can I trust the jellyfin community to do? right now they’re toxic as fuck towards me because I’m telling them they’re being toxic as fuck. the software they built could be the most beautiful and elegant solution in the whole world. but…I’ll never know that because I can’t get past being vilified for calling an apple an apple.

          Jellyfin, get your shit together or you will never get past the whole “Plex is shitty” phase.

          winners don’t care about winning, they only care about being the best they can be. maybe focus on more of that and less shitting on Plex for doing whatever they’re doing.

            Clear double standards. Just use the product if you want to.

            yes please explain to me what I have to do.

            Alright, man. Do what you want. I’m just pointing out that you have a weird double standard, ffs. Have a great day. (Or maybe not, I don’t wanna tell you what to do.)

            maybe focus on more of that and less shitting on Plex

            Also, you seem to be happy to tell people what they need to do. (I realize I’m being petty and annoying here, but that’s kinda on purpose for this one. I get pretty fucking frustrated by double standards.)

              My original comment wasn’t telling anyone what to do.

              I was telling the jellyfin community what I was going to do. y’all didn’t like that too much though did ya?

              then you came at me calling my comments asinine while attacking my position that the community is toxic as fuck by telling me to “ignore the problem”. yeah, thanks for telling me what I should do.

              when I pointed out that your comment is exactly the kind of toxic shit I can’t support, what’d you do? you doubled down and told me more of what I should do!

              thanks, if I need bad advice I know where to go now.

              the only time I said what anyone should do, it was addressed to the whole jellyfin community as a fucking favor because y’all are a toxic bunch of snowflakes that are clearly too emotionally immature to understand you’re alienating outsiders and killing the jellyfin brand.

              I guess the point that you’re not understanding is that I expect Plex to abuse me. I know what their motives are. All I know from jellyfin is that if you even mention “Plex”, the community will come out of the basements they hibernate in and shit down your throat for even suggesting anything other than jellyfin.

              Jesus fucking Christ you guys! look at yourselves! how about y’all read your comments to your spouses or mothers and see if they think you’re a bunch of toxic assholes. you obviously won’t listen to reason from a stranger.

              shit man, I don’t even fucking care about your asshole project enough to get this deep in comments. I just believe that FOSS deserves a better community than these shitheels.

                Wow. Hope you calm down later and realize what an insufferable cunt you’re being right now. (I’m not going to give you a retort anymore, because it’s clear that all of that is falling onto deaf ears. Fucking hell.)
