Yeah I am coming to the same realisation. If anything it gets worse, since as an adult you are naturally going to be more isolated when you aren't forced to socialize.

You can also buy your way in via their seedbox affiliation thing, easily worth the money for the extensive Kdrama library after RARBG fell over

I haven't used wired earphones or headphones in maybe 4 years now. No way I would go back to being tethered to my PC and/or dealing with tangled wires, especially with how well the newer versions of Bluetooth work.

Being able to browse a multi-TB library from any device is pretty nice. After the PH purge disappeared many of my favourite links overnight I started taking collecting seriously. Also transcoding helps when away from home with a mobile internet connection. Before jellyfin I was using shitty hidden photo album phone apps to hold my collection

That's why I have a jellyfin server for pron and plex for regular media. I originally tried to setup plex for pron as well, but when testing I couldn't be absolutely certain that it would be hidden from other users

HDR works better and has more features (ie AutoHDR) on win11

Hmm according to homeassistant my Rack+PC consumed precisely this much over the last day (graph from homeassistant). I have been trying to minimize power consumption through more efficient hardware, but you can only go so far without making big sacrifices.
