paraphrand@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex is discontinuing its “watch together” featureEnglish23·2 months agoLame. I’ve used this feature a lot. It feels like such a basic thing to include.
SharePlay is a standard feature in Apple devices, and it handles it. But only in supported apps.
The pandemic showed how nice such a feature can be for a lot of people.

paraphrand@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•A collection of 150+ self-hosted alternatives to popular softwareEnglish6·4 months agoI guess when I complain, I’m not really talking about hosting at all. I’m talking about things being written in stuff like python, with web UIs instead of native software.
I miss native software. And native software could be placed on a server. I prefer to run a Mac Mini for my home server, because I can use as many native apps as possible. Along with the all the other web-interface-based scripts and things.
People like to act like Docker containers and environment variables are simple. But so often these things are not.
Anyway. As someone else pointed out, it’s strange for me to be posting these lamentations in this community. I don’t mean to throw shade or talk shit.
So I’ll leave it there.

Or maybe I just need to know when work starts for you?
