The big thing is being able to stream outside of my home network. Running stuff locally is easy enough with basically any system luckily
Yes but you can actually have Copyparty run as a server similar to Jellyfin and have the same thing too?
Am I missing something that I am not looking at? But won't jellyfin have the same issue, I think that plex has servers that you can connect from outside but the GP wanted to move to jellyfin and I was talking about that.
And, you can even have plex like thing by just having Cloudflare Tunnels/Tailscale + Copyparty too.
