I'm a Jellyfin Server Guy, and same deal. Around a dozen friends & fam, no charge.

I'm not sure why needing transcoding would keep you off Jellyfin though, Jellyfin transcodes just fine.

We have them. The bike route I take to work in Vancouver has a concrete barrier, but it doesn't stop ebike riders from silently sneaking up and nearly knocking me off my bike, and it doesn't stop the uber eats guys driving on the sidewalk to their pickup locations. I agree infrastructure is important, but the enforcement for public safety is severely lacking.

This politician is a jackass, but I do wish there was a bit more bylaw enforcement being directed at e-bikes and scooters. I can't count the times I've almost been smoked by one on the goddamn sidewalk, or been sideswiped by what is essentially a silent motorcycle in a bicycle lane. Especially dangerous when they're so favored by delivery app couriers who are also incentivized to rush at high speeds.

I haven't been to a movie in a theater in years, but the horrible little cineplex-owned theater down the block from me was recently purchased by a local rep theater, and their opening week lineup is kind of insane, so I might come out of retirement to see Wings of Desire, In the Mood for Love, Ikiru, or Paris Texas somewhere that's a 2-minute walk from my house.

I think there's only a small handful of leftists in American politics at all, and that their propaganda apparatus would be small, if it exists at all. Maybe centrist, neoliberal propaganda, but leftist? Where?
