      I’ve had to start trimming things, but I can’t get rid of hard-to-finds. It’s mostly new shows, I’ll only keep recent seasons.

      I can’t lose shows like Captain Star or Duckman, but I probably don’t need every season of Westworld.

    Maybe a dumb question, but how is this better than having your files on a nas? I have a nas and just play my media files from there on my tv and laptop. What do I get from having jellyfin?

      A slick interface with nice title cards and pictures, feels like your own personal streaming service with no drawback

    Jellyfin? What is that, some computer based television network you populate and schedule yourself? Because I totally would want that. That would rule.

      It’s a FOSS alternative to Plex, if you’re familiar with that. Less like a tv channel, more like a streaming service you populate yourself.

      Unsure if your asking seriously (if not, whooosh to me), but it’s an open source alternative to Plex.

      Plex is a media server that you run to host your TV shows and movies. Think of a self-hosted Netflix.

    I have every single mainstream animated project that has been made for the last 60 years. I like to think that if I were ever in a Blast-From-The-Past type of situation, I’d be able to watch fresh content for the entire 20 years.
