I hear ya. My hosting provider is crap too.

Hey, I'm glad you said that! You're right, we are just arguing semantics. We both agree that this hobby/job is something important

UN is going to "manage the transition" - like it's some fucking destiny to implement AI and destroy the earth with yet another environmental catastrophe... uh...shit

something...something...guillotines...luddites...working class solidarity. The transformation will happen in the destruction of corporate AI and the systems that allow the rich to control the working class. Fuck the UN "managing" the implementation of corporate AI.

Working class solidarity should be the focus. We should preferably do this before the bots get autonomously controlled opposable thumbs.

Sounds like a solid theory. Most are probably Jellyfin servers, but "I have a Jellyfin Guy" doesn't have the same ring.

I agree, but Is it your hardware? Does an outside company own your hardware? Did you set up your own hardware that you control as your own (self) place of hosting? Do you maintain all of that hardware or does an outside company maintain that? Can a company arbitrarily shut down your host like what happened in OPs case?

Self-hosting is my choice to use my own hardware to (self) host. I am wanting to slowly move other stuff from hosting providers and self-host it on my own hardware.

I agree with all your statements except for the last sentence, because I use those same arguments to judge whether or not to host at home (self) or host externally.

This idea of it not being self hosted because it’s on somebody else’s computer is just weird.

If OP was self-hosting they wouldn't have had a problem with their hosting provider.
