yeah, the cynic in me thinks they’re just stoking the fomo to get more sales

Thank goodness I got a lifetime Jellyfin license years ago!

…reflects the real, ongoing value of the software…

If people are mostly buying the lifetime pass at the old price, that’s the real value of the software. It’s too bad they don’t think it’s enough to keep their company going. I don’t think this new price will save them. Not all companies need to exist.

Got my lifetime for $75 in 2013. Started testing Jellyfin anyway once Plex started offering streaming media to compete with local libraries.

Anyone with $750 to spend on this either:
A) Doesn’t have the skills/resources to set up and server, so they’ll just put the money towards streaming
B) Has the skills/resources to set up Jellyfin and will just put the towards server and media costs

Any bets when older lifetime passes get un-grandfathered (for at least some “new” features) at some point?

What about: Those who would molest a child will do so if they have power. I believe that would also cover non-oligarchs.

Yeah, we have in place ways to deal with pedophiles. But those with power have means to circumvent it. Take away their power, and they’d be treated like the rest of the pedophiles. The bigger problem is their power.

Are there really people who would turn on them if they’re pedophiles but not if they’re fucking all of us? Seems the later would be easier to convince people of.

The kid raping seems like a symptom of their power, not an independent disease. Cure them of that, and they won’t be able to get away with hurting people.

Does it even matter if they’re pedophiles?

Being an oligarchs is magnitudes larger of a crime.

pretty obviously it’s the one who can answer “yes” to “who’sagoodboy!?!?”

I could afford to call it photoshopped when it was a one-time fee. When they changed to a subscription model, I had to switch to piracy.

Immich is very popular, but there are more options there to check out.

Immich is a Google Photos alternative to manage and share your photos and videos. Comes with its own mobile app, as well as AI and search features.

PikaPods is a managed hosting solution for open source server apps. Their homepage explains a lot, and if you do some web searches, you can see they’ve got a good reputation.

Authors could sign their work digitally. PGP wouldn’t prevent them from lying about using AI, but they could build up a reputation for not using AI, and people could verify it was the author’s creation.

So maybe not great, just good.

This would be a great use of PGP
