Same, dude. The power users will assume everyone has the time to assemble/learn the skill of setting it up. That being said, it’s on my list of things to figure out one day!
It is content recommended on YouTube, essentially. Not the usual long form content but the shorts feed in particular draws specifically from my Jellyfin downloads and views. Not ads, necessarily, but video clips of movies or similar genres in my algorithmic feeds based on apps using zero trust. It is typically a pattern of download a movie(behind mullvad) or watch Jellyfin and then notice similar movie clips by the next morning. I’m not really interested in going over the details on this thread because it’s not the main topic and there are many other ways this type of behavior happens. For instance, I have Jellyfin installed on a google chromecast and that could be enough or the actual leak. I have a pi-hole running and don’t see many traditional ads but YT shorts was an area where I could physically see how my location, travels, and activity on the web in other places changed the clips they served me in realtime. Pretty cool and scary stuff! I’ve been slowly pruning back corporate spyware. Good luck out there.
Notice custom ads based on the content you ARE piping through zero trust? Just curious. I realize many users here are probably very avoidant of ads or algorithmic shifts in the first place so it may be unnoticeable
While I have similar users here. I noticed that anything I watched on Jellyfin and was connected to cloudflare would give me recommended YouTube shorts on the movies/shows or similar ones I was watching. It is a great free service and I got my domain hooked up through them for $12/year but I feel like it is the leak for my data. I didn’t mind it for a long time because getting shorts served to me that were movie clips was fine with me.
Anyone notice similar behaviors? My paranoia has me wanting to go a different route or lock things down more.
I haven’t seen the posts (probably from deletion) but Lemmy to me is an invaluable source of smart Linux and selfhosters. Seems like a great place to ask questions for problem to me on the surface. Where should people like me go to if I need help? Genuinely asking
I imagine that is what happened. Fear of reversing can make somebody plunge further ahead with some hope they could get out of it at a lower point with no repercussions? Still the wrong move but people be dumb
Realized this in 2016 when real life people I knew slowed way down on sharing and shifted to using social media as consumption platforms. Most people I know talk themselves into needing it for work or distant relatives but it’s 99% reels and doomscrolling. I have no answers.
One way they will get around this through consolidation of companies as they merge and strike deals. We’ve already seen Disney+ “add value” when they added Hulu to their package. Long history of this but streaming is scary cause it’s not just traditional tv media. The goal of Netflix isn’t to be a movie studio. All of these “streaming” companies all want to become an Amazon. Grow, grow, grow. Add gaming, add some shopping, add a built-in advertising and data aggregation tool, whatever it takes, then get bought out bigger fish. Become new product. I give it a decade before “big tech” controls Hollywood and most American media.

Before digital? Millions. After digital? Possibly trillions? All those photos backed up to the “the cloud” make great training data, though!

I haven’t had any issues with friends streaming 4k! I probably should add a data cap in the Jellyfin settings, though

It certainly has evolved and feels more civil. For now!
Start with the dance class then find an extrovert to throw you in the ring somewhere
Hell yeah
Anything people on iOS can do? Other than switch to a google phone

Going directly against your ask: a raspberry pi 3b is cheap and has what you need. :)
Realizing I have an average of 40 years left and it could all be future wars PAnik

Good job!
Price of a tow is in a lot of places is very cheap compared to hiring a mechanic to replace your starter
