Anyone else feel like ~99% of their life was kind of wasted?
Do what matters to you. For me, it's traveling. Doesn't have to be expensive, or far. I just like to see as much of the world as I can.

With Trump back, Israeli settlers revive goal of full control of West Bank

It's a fact that Trump will hurt their cause more than Kamala. Protest all you want. But also vote for whatever may help your cause. I don't understand why people don't understand this.

Every step in the right direction is better than taking no steps at all (or worse, taking steps backwards). In this particular instance, and certainty throughout our nation's history, voting for a third party in a race with so much at stake, mathematically will help out one particular candidate over another. This is because USA uses a very flawed system of "first past the post" voting. In this instance, Trump obviously benefitted. Voting is taking direct political action. It's not the only form, but it is arguably the most important form of direct political action in this country. It is the way we make lasting and effective change in this country. You can't just force change all at once. You gotta put in the work.
Edit: I'd also add that I am very much in favor of reforming our voting system. But it must come through the system we currently have. The alternative is violence and chaos, which I am not in favor of.

There was a subreddit for it. Wet should create a Lemmy community though.

I'm also interested in hearing what makes Jellyfin better than Plex?

Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?
Right here! Barely been on Reddit since last Monday. I don't feel like I'm missing much, frankly.

Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.
I set up my Plex server in 2021 for under $300 USD, using an old PC case I already had. I built my system around the AMD Ryzen 3200G. No graphics card, 8GB RAM, and Ubuntu Server. I've never had more than maybe 2 - 3 users streaming my Plex at a time, but its been chugging along with no issues for about 2 years now. For what I use it for, performance has been great, and obviously it didn't break the bank. I'm probably going to add a dedicated GPU at some point for hardware transcoding, but other than that, the wife and I are happy with all our content in one place. Go ahead and build it yourself. You don't have to go big $$ up front. Just build what you need and expand later if you want to.

I've been meaning to try jellyfin, but I like that Plex has pretty decent first party apps for most devices. How is app support for jellyfin across different platforms? I mostly watch Plex from a Fire TV stick and Chromecast, besides my phone.
