This reminds me of the Docker issue they fixed in Omarchy recently. Basically you could get root through the docker socket, because the default user groups included the docker group.
Jellyfin is free. What price? :D


Almost true.
It is pretty picky, as it expects a certain folder structure to get all the info correct when importing. But it is fairly easy to go in and manually “fetch” the correct metadata from one of the metadata providers (Amazon, Google Books, Open Library etc). It’s a chore if you have big library with many different structures, but doable if you don’t want to rename all folders.


Fair. I have never had a Home Video library, so I don’t know how those are scanned or what they are looking for other than embedded metadata. But yes, sounds like that library type has some issues.


I’ve had initial scans take hours and scans afterwards usually also take some minutes. Why do you think that is an unreasonable amount of time to check all entries for updated metadata?
unending != 40 minutes.


No obvious AI use in the github repo. So probably CBH, but better to get confirmation from @sanitation@lemmy.today .
Disclaimer: Claude and Cursor has done at least some of the work.
I use my Nextcloud instance as a OIDC provider for all my other apps.


Likely because it’s mainly written in PHP and the default database is SQLite, which is not great for large deployments.
But I use Nextcloud daily on a low end machine and I don’t think it’s that bad.
Hopefully it will be open source, so you can build it yourself. It seems to be related to gnomeOS…
