    Jellyfin is great, I have it setup with iptv as well, and tailscale so I can reach it from any of my devices from anywhere. It actually saves me a ton of money, since having sport stream subscriptions is cooooostly, and I just use my main computer as host.

      I just have it accessible through my domain. IPTV is interesting but I have no idea how it works.

        I just dislike having public things. With WireGuard and then tailscale, VPNs got so hasselfree that I’ve removed most things from the open net. Reduces setup time and management a lot.

        IPTV is basically paid piracy. Someone else has grabbed most commercial channels from somewhere and sell it to other people. Usually they have a collection of movies/shows you can stream as well. But I only use it for sports really.

          So they basically stream what is being broadcast on these channels to you? What does it cost? I have friends who watch sports too, if it’s cheaper it might be worth it if I set it up for them on my server.

            Basically, yes. It costs me about $140 a year.
