With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.

So I am wondering if it's possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?

Also, if plex goes down so does your server. I love plex but if any of the 100% self hosted stuff catches up I'm absolutely jumping ship.

That’s only for authentication and some apps. You can set an IP whitelist so it doesn’t require auth from certain ranges - when I changed ISP a little while ago, I was still using Plex offline.

oh that is awesome! I guess I'd still have to manually input a (dynamic) IP for anyone outside of my local, but that is an awesome work around to know, thanks!

This is why I'm not quite ready for Jellyfin as a main platform. It's pretty good, but I'm still getting a handle on how this all works.
