Yeah, in my example, I have various genres of music I listen to and some days I'm in the mood for one and not another. Some of those might have subgenres I am in the mood to listen to. For example: Metal might break into subfolders called black metal, thrash metal, melodic metal, etc. Based on where I feel they belong the most. If I'm in the mood for some melodic metal today, I'll go there. Or EDM, I'll have a folder for Psytrance, another for House, etc...

Rather than trying to edit the metadata on thousands and thousands of files every time I change media systems as I've done over these years, it's 100x simpler for me to just navigate to the folders directly and not care about how the system "wants" to organize it. Every media system wants to organize differently and I'm kind of tired of having to spend hours editing all my music just to get it to organize the way that works for me, so that's where I've gotten to the point of just using folder structures.

I could never get Plex to work the way I wanted it to, so I'm actually someone who moved to Kodi and then to Emby. Once I got into Emby, I've yet to leave it. My biggest problem now is that I want to leave it for Jellyfin, but the lack of many things I love about Emby have never been moved to Jellyfin.

For example, I have a very specific organization of my music libraries I use to navigate what I want to listen to much quicker, since I'm into all kinds of genres of music. Emby allows me to navigate by folder structure, so if I'm in the mood for heavy metal one day, go to that folder. If classical another day, go there. Jellyfin on the other hand didn't have folder structure view and even though it's one of the top requested features for the past few years when I last checked, it's never been added...

I think the day Jellyfin does fill in these gaps, assuming new ones aren't introduced due to Emby also improving, I'll finally jump over.

I guess to the original topic, I do think Jellyfin exceeds Plex though lol.

As of today it's actually 0.28% now. So most likely going to continue hitting those lower decimal values from here.

Plus 1 to Venstar. Got myself the T7900 and even though it offers internet access, I just blocked it at my router and connected it to the network, controlling it through home assistant. No need for third party access and whatnot with it since it's completely local.

Also hard to relate. Got my Gentoo server running full auto updates every morning and then send an ntfy alert on success or failure. Haven't seen a failed update in so long (other than the occasional package that had a bad build or something once in a while).

Back when I was fresh in the Gentoo and Linux world (Gentoo is where I started) and updating once a month, I can definitely say I ran into issues.. dunno if it's that big of an issue these days though.

"Texas Data Privacy and Security Act"... This is a thing? lol

For those of us not using Wayland, any idea if this still applies? Waiting on my flatpak version to support audio sharing with screen share... And please performance improvements.

Haha, 1 year ago... Cannot remember, but I'm positive it was some failed autocorrect. Unfortunately I can't figure out what was autocorrected. I'd just ignore "dusky" in that sentence. I don't even know what word means lol

Hmm I'll have to check this later as I don't remember ever running into that problem since my Xbox internal has been full for a while. But I also wonder if that applies to physical copies or not since all my series x games are physical. Unless Xbox does this automatically in the background without user intervention, then I may have not noticed

And don't forget the awesome @export_subgroup("text") on top of that!

Weird, I have a regular old 2TB (or maybe it was 1?) western digital plugged into the USB on the back of my series x and it works fine, not sure I understand the need to spend a bunch on something like this. Edit: and before responding about speed... I haven't noticed much, if any, difference in game performance from installing on the drive or external outside of the initial game loading (startup) time, so not sure if that's the only benefit to using the expansion slot.

I tend to us the backslash syntax for longer if statements. One thing I do differently than documention mentions though is double tab the following lines in my if statements. Keeps it easier to read where it ends and where the actual code block begins.
