You don’t need to fit into that usecase

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why bother with jellyfin, arr stack and everything else if free streaming services exist?English
19 daysStreaming services exist, and i used to use them faithfully, here are some issues with streaming services:
- not all content is high definition. Some older sttuff is bad quality and better quality can be found elsewhere like bluerays
- if the subtitles suck then you are stuck with them. When selfhosting you can download better ones for those shows.
- licensing changes and a show you’re watching will be moved to another provider… or not at all. It’s just gone.
- for a family wanting to watch different shows at the same time, 1 service may not be enough. You may need 2 or 3 or even 5. That adds up $$.
- ad-free experience, quality of streams, number of simultaneous streams, etc are monetized under streaming services. This does not happen when you selfhost
- You are giving money to large companies that will use their wealth and power to screw you over.
Those are just some that come to mind.
Domain name made me double take but i guess the dual meaning is a feature
