With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.
So I am wondering if it’s possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?
I’ve played with it a bit, and am in the middle of upgrading my setup and will probably run both in parallel. My biggest issue with Jellyfin is the app UI is just miles behind Plex right now. I have a fair amount of people that use my server, and there is no way I could get them to use a Jellyfin client. That and, while I kinda mostly know what I’m doing, heavy emphasis on “kinda”.
But I rally like Jellyfin in concept, and I’m excited to have some proper dedicated hardware to get to know it better!
