In what way? Their product lineup is the worst it’s ever been expect maybe xbox, especially software like windows and office. Even Xbox is loosing to Sony and Nintendo despite being a decent product.
In the windows 98-7 era I was die hard. It was a pretty good OS. By modern standards, it’s just awful. Mac and Linux for me.
Don’t forget the all powerful proverb:
“Treat Yoself!”
I use my computer as my main communication device. When I wake it up, I want all my apps refreshed and ready, texts and mail downloaded, and everything ready to go. Then again, that’s why I have a Mac 😂 works great
“The always-on nature of phones and tablets is incredibly convenient. Wouldn’t it be great if your (non-ARM) laptop or desktop could do this too?”
Easy, get an M series Mac :P
Try adding a lightweight content blocker to safari like wipr or adguard , it should speed things up
I’m surprised you mentioned Plex to be too complicated but ended up on jellyfin! I use jellyfin as well, love it. Pairs perfectly with infuse, I found jellyfinios and swiftfin to not have enough polish or features
I don’t have the “pro”, I use the free functions of the app. Haven’t run into an issue yet! Been using it for years, no subscription needed. The app runs great on Apple TV so no need for AirPlay, and when I travel I plug into HDMI
I use infuse, works great. If you wanna keep it simple you can just connect the app directly to a NAS or file share from your Mac, even easier than air video just set up file sharing in system settings. Works great on Apple TV and Mac also

And if you wanna get fancy down the road you can hook the app up to a Plex or Jellyfin
Big improvement! Much cuter imo
I was under the impression that SOS via satellite was still US only, seems they’ve since opened it up to more countries. That’s great!
I think paying for emergency or medical services of any kind (outside of your income taxes) at all is the problem here.
You act like the helicopter ride to bring you back to safety isn’t going to bankrupt you for the rest of your life anyway. This is America we’re talking about
Edit: at least in the US* I should have said
I still have windows 10 on my work computer which is the only windows device I have, and it is riddled with advertisements, especially the start menu
Everyone knows Microsoft OSs are tick-tock anyway. The failed 11 will be superseded by a well received 12, and the cycle will continue. Can’t kill 10 until 12 is fully accepted. Like 10 and 7 before it.
Those are a lot of words I would need to research to know what you mean lol
No, but its not worth it for me to setup a signing server. If someone cares enough to do the work to hack my jellyfin and wants access to my random TV shows and movies they can enjoy them lol, its not like it opens them up to the rest of my computer or anything
I can access my jellyfin outside my network no problem after forwarding a couple ports. Am I missing something here?
This is Lemmy, mastodon is much more popular than lemmy.
I was in the same boat as you, ended up deciding to give up the mouse and keyboard and went all in on console gaming to give up my PC. So glad I did
