fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added “FBI” up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.
I don’t understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.
I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.
I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.
I prefer having them instantly accessible from my truenas server. Plex is a godsend.
I just use my PC for movies + a projector that’s plugged in, so I like keeping it really simple and avoiding stuff like Plex.
I like being able to access it anywhere, on (most) any device of my choosing.
I find I just end up watching too much media if it’s too accessible like that. With discs + computer + projector, it’s easier for me to have dedicated media time without it bleeding into other things I should be doing.
Use jellyfin
I will if Plex ever stops doing what I need it to. As it stands, it works perfectly fine so I see no reason to switch.
I use an android device and my NAS is a Synology ds923. Jellyfin wasn’t nearly as smooth an experience for me as Plex was. I’m willing to switch to FOSS but it doesn’t seem as good yet…
Sounds like we have the same setup.
