So, I just got jellyfin running in docker and so far just uploaded some photos. I’m just wondering what most of you are using it for. I’m asking because I really don’t have a music connection like I had many years ago, best I pay for Apple music. Also I have no movie collection either. Maybe I don’t even need jellyfin, but I love selfhosting and jellyfin is fantastic in it’s possible uses. I don’t understand the live TV or DVR options I’m still playing with the settings.
I guess I’m asking you guys to tell me why I need jellyfin and what else I could use it for.
Thanks for understanding my thoughts.
You guys here have thought me so much about selfhosting and I appreciate it greatly!
I 🏴☠️ all my movies and TV shows directly into my jellyfin media directory, it finds all the meta data and gives me a UI that the most tech illiterate people feel comfortable using. I also store some audio books and youtube videos I’ve downloaded. I personally would not use it if I did not have movies/tv shows downloaded.
