The video is either being transcoded or direct streaming (audio only being transcoded). The red line is how far ahead that process is.

Instead of real attempts at combating this we just took the capitalistic approach and turned “green” into a bullshit marketing tactic to give people the guise of doing their part when they buy an electric Hummer.

Had to scroll too far for Stratum! The watch app is also why I use it so that I can keep my phone far away from me while I work. Game changer. Surprised more don’t use it.

There’s more, he criticized protests against ICE in LA turning into riots, and had some nice things to say about Kirk after he was killed.

That said I think it’s really unproductive for people to turn on him after he was a big spark in a movement and is still outspoken. He has irritated me a few times lately but he’s still one of the most influential leaders.

By your logic the *arr suite isn’t self hosted either since they rely on metadata cache servers.

In fact Jellyfin relies on external services for their metadata too!

Bit weird to pin it on an age generation

Streaming is unfortunately a pretty weak hole in my Degoogling adventure. There’s really no perfect solution.

CCwGTV … what I have. But it’s no longer supported, pretty slow. Launcher is bloaty af by default but I use a custom one. And of course… it’s Google. I can side load for now but that’s going away soon so I need an alternative.

Shield. I also have one but take all the above issues and add that it’s a bit faster.

Apple TV. No side loading. Jellyfin support is janky still. Fastest and most elegant though.

Fire TV. Fuck Amazon.

I’d love some small Linux mini PC I can just build myself.
