My friend has a 5gbps fiber line in their home and also hosts some 30TB+ of content for friends & family. It’s easy to use. It is quite nice.

I host a media server of 72TB of classic movies, cancelled TV shows you can’t get on streaming. I do this for family and friends who don’t have the patience or know how to run a media server this size. I have a catalog of over 7k movies and 400 TV shows. I am likey the only use case for this. However I do appreciate it.
For personal use I usually suggest jellyfin.

Honestly, I’ve only dabbled in Plex, but Im kinda confused about the hate for this. Isn’t the whole point to be able to more easily browse and use a large media library (esspecially for something like a shared library)? This seems like its useful to that purpose.

If you already know your catalog and what you want to watch, it adds two to three more steps to watching that media.

I thought I had a decent library. I’m sitting at 5tb. I feel like I built a house and you’re over here with a mansion. Lol
