I can’t imagine moving over would be difficult. Just point Jellyfin to the same folder containing your content. When I first setup my home lab, I was going to use Plex, but I could not get it to recognize media. The naming format wasn’t right or something. Jellyfin just worked immediately
the ability to easily watch or listen to friends’ media
Why do you think this can’t be done with Jellyfin?
Why? It’s been much easier for me
I am in the US, and I despise what’s going on. So please do not take what I am about to say as a defense to what is happening here.
Things are pretty extreme right now, but they aren’t as bad as the extreme left media is making it out to be. I find news articles posted on Lemmy are often sensationalized. There are 100% things we need to worry about, and things I myself am fighting (most everything the orange man does). But I do not think it is so bad you should cancel a big opportunity for yourself. Obviously things are happening to people, but most people are traveling to and from the US without any issues. You aren’t going to hear reports about all the people who didn’t have any issues while traveling.
I do not think there is reason to believe anything would happen to you. The right doesn’t want you here, so they absolutely aren’t going to keep you here as a prisoner. If they wanted you out, you would gladly leave on your own accord and cover all the expenses. They wouldn’t spend more money making you leave if you don’t want to be here anyway.
I agree with you, but I do wish a lot of conservatives used chatGPT or other AI’s more. It, at the very least, will tell them all the batshit stuff they believe is wrong and clear up a lot of the blatant misinformation. With time, will more batshit AI’s be released to reinforce their current ideas? Yea. But ChatGPT is trained on enough (granted, stolen) data that it isn’t prone to retelling the conspiracy theories. Sure, it will lie to you and make shit up when you get into niche technical subjects, or ask it to do basic counting, but it certainly wouldn’t say Ukraine started the war.
You do not have to port forward. In fact, I would suggest against port forwarding. There are other options to access remotely
