All good advice, but the question was specifically about dating apps.

Maybe it varies by region, but is there any good / ethical dating app with enough users to matter?

I like the idea, but it won't work when the vast majority are already covering their faces, and this will probably be used to further justify covering their faces.

I'm actually not 100% sure how to answer that. It's just a "share" configured through the Unraid UI, being accessed by a docker container running on the same machine (binhex's Jellyfin image.) I think that the "share" in this context is essentially just a mount point, but it's also (optionally) exposed as an SMB share externally.

I made the switch a few months back as well. Have you had the issue where"Recently Added" just straight up doesn't work? It's about 50/50 for me whether my new downloads show up there or not, and if they do, it's usually inserted somewhere down the list between other things I added months ago. Not sure if there's a workaround, but it's my #1 complaint with Jellyfin. Otherwise, it's been great.

Literally does not matter. There's always going to be someone smarter, harder-working, or more privileged than you. The sooner you accept that and take ownership of your own experience without comparing yourself to others, the better off you'll be.

Pretty widely understood at my last two companies to mean something like "looking into this" or "taking a look." Basically just a quick acknowledgment to let the person asking the question know that they can probably expect a response from that person soon, and lets others know that someone's already on it so we don't duplicate effort.

I always assumed this was a common usage on Slack.

I always go back to that early coronavirus briefing where a reporter questioned his authority to dictate state government lockdown policies and he just sat there stunned, repeating "when you're the president your authority is total because you have total authority, it's total..." It's been clear for years that this fucking guy never understood the job description, and rather than learning anything from experience, he's having it rewritten. The constitution isn't going to save us from that.

I switched to Jellyfin recently and I mostly prefer it over Plex, except for lack of organization tools and the goddamn roulette wheel that is seeking. Why is it that seeking defaults to 30 second intervals, requires a click to confirm, and occasionally just jumps to some random point near the beginning of the file? Great software overall, but it's wild to me that this basic playback functionality is so hit or miss.
