I like how Microsoft came up with an obscure extension for screensavers, which is just an .exe in disguise.

In Italy we have PagoBancomat, but that's a debit card, not a credit card.
If you buy online, you can also use PayPal connected directly to a bank account, no credit card necessary (PayPal is also a shitty company, but sometimes there's no alternative...)
I'd like to know which country are you from. I live in Italy and I've never even seen a car with heated seating, it sounds like those fancy things for rich people in movies.
Same when I'm in Denmark, I love it. Too bad we don't have them down in Italy.
I mean, a server is just a PC that's on 24/7 :) you had a server all along!
...depending on your country. Some countries don't give a flying fuck: in that case, don't waste money on VPNs if you don't need it.
I've been collecting over 10 TB of Linux ISOs this year.
Yes, you need people. But I'd say Reddit has too many people. The Ethernal September problem: sometimes, small is better.
...and you say that as if it's a bad thing :)
I know, for some features Plex is better, and for a very few features Plex will always be better because it's centralized. Jellyfin, being self-hosted, doesn't have an easy way to share and combine libraries from multiple users, and no single "login" page like Plex. This may be annoying for users, but we know all the problems that centralization comes with.
But this makes me think about the fediverse. What if Jellyfin servers could federate with each other? I wonder if anybody is working on such a project.
Edit: okay, apparently I found this feature request on the Jellyfin features tracker.
Pro-tip: Plex is slowly enshittifying, a good open source alternative is Jellyfin.
Because nobody checks what it gets in...
