I'm baffled by your blind faith in politicians. There's been clear foreign influence on just about every major social media platform.

https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/17/tech/tiktok-user-data-oracle/index.html Definitely, definitely correct. A company that's owned by a foreign nation shouldn't be a problem. And if you think that this doesn't set a precedent for banning anything politicians don't like, then I feel sorry for your naivety.

The US has control of US tiktok servers. This is bannable because politicians want the power to control social media.

Wouldn't that be nice, if the powers that be didn't grab for more power lol

I was on tiktok and even created for it for a bit, but it did get exhausting quickly after getting flooded with a painful amount of ads. I do like short form content though, I've been enjoying Loops!

These bans are bad. All it takes is for the US to think the fediverse is a threat and this goes too. You clearly don't like the platform and that's okay, but don't root for government censorship on the internet.

I definitely struggled to wrap my head around it at first, but I got used to using it when I got into DevOps, and once you understand it, it becomes so easy and helpful that it's easy to overuse it. I can certainly answer any questions to the best of my ability if you do look into it!

I've had all my servers running on my personal Windows machine, and I've been planning to move them to a dedicated Linux machine, as well as move to Linux on my PC. Part of that involved containerizing my whole setup to make the move easier. There's a script listed in Jellyfin docs that helps you migrate your setup. Itzs a bit involved if you're coming from Windows but very doable. Very easy if you're already on Linux though.

It's been a bit since I've asked them, but they certainly complained about the cost before. Almost as much as the hosting itself for sure.

I've tried explaining to them before, but they think that it's a scam because it's free lol

And my parents still buy SSL certs because that's just what they know 🤢

It's kind of what I liked about Baby Driver, the movie acknowledges that a laundromat is kind of a weird place to hang out for a date, but the awkwardness lets the passionate feelings they have for each other shine through.
