If it won't irritate them, hand sanitizer works wonders on pine sap.

Those are all totally fair considerations, just not requirements in my workflow. I'm coming at it from a personal use case, where I don't need offline access to my personal email, and I only have one email account to check (my Gmail is forwarded to my Proton mail).

My question was more to lead OP down the requirements gathering path, to evaluate their actual needs and if a client is actually required or if it's more of a "nice to have".

Thanks for laying out some of those advantages to a client though. Every user has their own needs and if offline access, multiple accounts, consistent UI, etc. are desired, then a client is certainly a great option.

I guess the question is, why do you need a client? I find most web interfaces to be sufficient, you can enable browser notifications, create an "app" so that it's in a stand-alone window, etc.

As another comment said, I just use the Proton web interface.

Fedora on lappy 486, Nobara dual boot on compy 386.

Might pick something else for compy though. Don't really game on it with Linux since my games are Windoze only (iRacing)

Fair. Might be worth going through this process for those books that readarr doesn't find. I'm using MaM which has most books already.

Thanks for this. Would be awesome to integrate this with readarr.

I use oldtoons.world for most cartoon downloading.

Not sure if it's just you, but we were at an event last night and the DJ was playing "Play that funky music" by Wild Cherry and it was censored during the chorus to remove "white boy" and "whitey"...

What's your preferred method for controlling each client? Do you have a wireless multimedia keyboard at each TV? Remote with an IR receiver?

Any different than just using a Fire stick/Roku/Shield at each TV with a different user logged in on each?

This is an intriguing use case, hence the questions. I'll be moving back into our reno'ed house and planning out TVs, etc.

Yeah, different port* (8097) for the second instance.

This is also me. After Allo's demise, I moved everyone to WhatsApp. Aside from being a Mera product now, it was a good choice.

 

Howdy. Just chiming in as a happy Jellyfin user. I'm running multiple instances since my music library was significantly affecting my primary video instance, to the point of not letting Android TV clients load the home page properly.

I've since split out the music and am a happy camper. I briefly tried out Navidrome for music but wasn't happy without the ability to edit metadata from the UI (even if the Jellyfin metadata editing doesn't affect ID3 tags anyway). It may not be be FOSS, but Symfoniun is a fantastic Android music app that supports Jellyfin and DLNA casting.
