A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

The Jellyfin devs have quite clearly outlined some of the issues in the setup guides, and others are detailed in issues on Github. They do work on it, but most bad code was inherited and they have limited time on their hands to fix it, preferably in a way that doesn't instantly mess up everyone's setups.

They could put a banner in the network settings warning users about these security issues while they get them fixed, that doesn't require fixing any inherited code. In the GitHub issue linked, there's at least one upset user because they had no idea this was even a problem.
