Enjoyed this and now following consumer surplus. Any other newsletters / blogs that you would recommend?

I’d vote for waiting for 0.18.1 if it’s only a couple more days

To sum up for anyone finding this later:

Running your own jellyfin server is best and free. Check out the servarr community to get started. Will take a bit of setting up but if you can figure out Lemmy, you can figure this out. I’d personally recommend some kind of Usenet subscription with this but some might prefer to use torrents.

You can do what I do and get an app share where someone else runs the server, downloads everything for you etc and you pay to use their service.

Stremio / Syncler paired with a paid real-debrid account seems like a good solution but you can use torrents if you don’t want to pay anything. This is seriously good and cheaper than an app share. I’m getting rid of my backup app share and using this in its place.

Thanks all!

Ah that makes sense, shouldn’t be too much hassle to get them in there then if I can find a good source of torrents. What’s the go to place for those?

Nice, I had a play with this earlier and it seems to work well if you know what you want to watch. Did see a few ‘no results found’ for some obscure shows

What do you mean out of your range? You can definitely learn to make games, could even document your learning journey (creating content), could stream or record gameplay / speedruns etc.

If you know there are things you enjoy but are bored and unmotivated to do them, you could try to commit to just playing a game for 20 mins. If you feel like carrying on, do it if not you can at least say you didn’t just sit around doing nothing. Cherish the small victories and build up from there. All easier said than done of course but it’s good to try, doesn’t matter if you succeed or not.
