A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

What are you using to watch jellyfin on iOS?

In order of personal preference:

  1. Jellyfin Mobile
  2. Infuse
  3. Streamyfin
  4. Swiftfin

Maybe just try them all out and find the one that fits you best. You could also use more than one (which is what I do).

Maybe, Streamyfin? its the only iOS App with Downloads and Offline-Mode

Swiftfin is what I'm using for Plex on my Apple TV

It's perfect for me because it supports direct stream and decoding of the file for playback on the Apple TV - because the Apple TV is capable enough to do that.

This is ideal because my NAS server is a venerable but now very long in the tooth HP Gen 8 microserver from 2014, so it doesn't have the chops for reencoded streaming anymore.
