Actual answer for 3:

• put jellyfin behind a proper reverse proxy. Ideally on a separate host / hardware firewall, but nginx on the same host works fine as well.
• create subdomain, let's say sub.yourdomain.com
• forward traffic, for that subdomain ONLY, to jellyfin in your reverse proxy config
• tell your relatives to put sub.yourdomain.com into their jellyfin app

All the fear-mongering about exposing jellyfin to the internet I have seen on here boils down to either

• "port forwarding is a bad idea!!", which yes, don't do that. The above is not that. Or
• "people / bots who know your IP can get jellyfin to work as a 1-bit oracle, telling you if a specific media file exists on your disk" which is a) not an indication for something illegal, and b) prevented by the described reverse proxy setup insofar as the bot needs to know the exact subdomain (and any worthwhile domain-provider will not let bots walk your DNS zone).

(Not saying YOU say that; just preempting the usual folklore typically commented whenever someone suggests hosting jellyfin publicly accessible)

Holy fucking shit I am not alone. Oh god. It's real. I'm not alone.

How good is it with background activities?

About the only thing holding me back is that my phone runs a continuous glucose monitor, constantly connecting with a small sensor in my arm. That all quietly dying in the background would just... not be an option.

Not my style

Not comfortable

Too cold

Neovim, because I wanted something that would not just disappear.

I never really got along with VSCode, opting for Atom instead. Microsoft bought GitHub, which owned Atom, and promptly discontinued it.

Nvim has such an active community (and no "owner") that I'm certain that this won't happen again. At the same time, the plugin system is so flexible that I'm also certain that I will never miss out on any shiny new features.

Over the years, my config has matured, and is mine. The thought of going back to an editor, any editor, less flexible in its configuration than nvim is just... an absolute "no".

It's a steep learning curve, but well worth it.

Yyyyyyupp

"Oh no, this device is rooted! :(" Yes because I know what I am doing, now show me my account balance you stupid piece of ahit banking app.

Don't worry, I haven't had to use Windows or MacOS since the early 2010s.

Summarize and find stuff, iirc

Perfection

Oh, nice. Other way as well? Can I comment from my Lemmy instance's web interface?

Why, what did I miss?

Well, good news! Windows File Explorer gets built-in AI actions, so you can combine the worst of both worlds! 🥳
