Really spammy today with all the Jellyfin glow up and Plex bashing. Plex works great, if you didn't get a Plex Pass over a decade ago for $20 that's your loss. Organisations can't offer great services for free. Eventually Jellyfin will have to start charging, and eventually they will "suck" as well. You young people haven't been on this rollercoaster long enough to see history repeat itself again and again and again. So have fun with your Jellyfin

    The only two that have been good to me and still going strong is Plex and PocketCasts with their lifetime memberships. That was a good deal. But too many to name that turned out to absolutely not lifetime. GPS systems definitely the worst culprits.

    I frequented Cape Town and Johannesburg doing research, that also included going into black townships to chat with people. I myself had an escort of 15 huge guys with guns and still had all sorts of problems around Nyanga including a shoot out over me recording video. Would never walk or drive around there on my own, I saw so many tourists and (white) locals being targeted, attacked and beaten on the street. There's a reason everyone lives in highly secure compounds. You should know this before going to SA. The most beautiful place, best food on the planet, but you may die for it.
