          wow not just totally unprofessional, but even downvoting the calling out the lack of credible security! you can be ashamed of yourself, and hope that your clients never find out you are a contrarian

          I really doubt your work has anything to do with computers

            You’re hilarious. I haven’t downvoted you, others are reading these threads as well.

            Talking about security… Have you heard of intrusion detection, process isolation, or principle of least privilege?

              Talking about security… Have you heard of intrusion detection, process isolation, or principle of least privilege?

              are you aware that the very popular official docker image for jellyfin still runs the jellyfin process as root? or that most people just mount their media libraries as a read-write volume because they don’t know better?

              I would also be very interested about statistics on how many jellyfin admins run intrusion detection software on their system, if you have any.

                I’m not running my stuff as root if I don’t have to. You’re moving goalposts

                  “if I don’t have to”. and, is your jellyfin running as root? or are you running it a different way, e.g. from apt package (where I believe it’s sensible by default)? I smell doubt.

                  but in either case it does not matter how do you run jellyfin. what I care is how many other people are running jellyfin exposed to the internet because they think its safe, because people on forums told them so, with the popular docker image where it is being ran as root.

                  I’m not moving goalposts. I’m still firmly besides my point that for the general jellyfin admin exposing jellyfin to the wide internet is unsafe and irresponsible. and seeing all the downvotes but no one else telling their opinion, it seems no one knows better either and they are just angry I pointed this out.
                  again, I don’t care how are you running Jellyfin. I don’t want to convince you on that, you do whats best for you, it seems you might have done some precautions. what I care is to not recommend these practices to others (without the full picture), because they are unsafe, especially without further precautions like running a(n unofficial) rootless jellyfin docker image and an intrusion detection system, which I guarantee most people won’t have.
