I mean... you bought a Roku.
Of all the streaming devices you can purchase, I'd argue Roku is the most privacy invasive: https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/roku-streaming-sticks/
Yes I am aware. I mainly use the Jellyfin app on it. I have a PiHole but I unfortunately can’t change the DHCP/DNS settings on my router (i have no admin access to it) so i have to rely change the DNS for every client on my home. But unfortunately Roku does not allow for changing their DNS server.
I have heard about putting my roku on another submet but i don’t know how to do this. Any thoughts 🤔
Hope it's working well for ya'!
Yes! I noticed the video player UI changed, it looks pretty clean. Are you a Jellyfin developer? If so, I love you.
I am. Funny enough, I'm the one who made the new video player OSD 🤘
Oh. Well, this is awkward. I think of you more as a friend...
It's platonic, you never hugged a coworker before?
😆 No, but I've had one put me in a bear hug before.
The recent updates are working really well! Congratulations on the rewrite!
🤘 Enjoy
It's like you picked my favorite features and put them in by default. Thanks.
