Worth noting that Jellyfin is not only free as in beer (if you selfhost), but also free as in Freedom i.e. open source.

It’s kind of funny, isn’t this exactly what Meta is doing to everyone with an Instagram account? You have a shadow profile on Threads regardless if you signed up or not.

I wonder why the reaction is so different, maybe because they both are social media? Or maybe just good timing with the whole Twitter debaucle.
