I'm wondering if they've confused self hosting and FOSS somehow permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] lemming007@lemm.ee -2 points 3 years ago (2 children) Plex requires a third party account, therefore not selfhosted. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] bluejay@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 3 years ago That's a very narrow definition of self hosting. Do you also not consider it self hosting if you use a cloud provider VPS? It relies on a 3rd party so I'd love to see the gymnastics that keep stuff on a VPS as self hosted but not Plex. If you don't consider things on a VPS as self hosted then I'm not sure what to say other than I disagree. permalink fedilink source parent [–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago The identity service is not self hosted then. But the rest of Plex literally is. You can self host Gitea and use a third party service like openID for authentication too if you want to. Just because you self host some things doesn’t mean you HAVE to self host EVERYTHING permalink fedilink source parent [–] lemming007@lemm.ee 0 points 3 years ago* (1 child) Yeah, but that's not what laxnover@lemmy.world was advertising permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] laxnover@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago The original question was about the use of these two services. I answered their question and provided a link. I’m sorry that you took that as advertising, but the OP was asking for the basics. There are more productive ways of responding than immediately attacking, though, that would have helped get your point across. For example, providing links to things like Headscale or Netmaker to help your point about not using a third party service. permalink fedilink source parent
