Monero works for me, come to think of it idk when the last time i used cash for a "private" transaction, but all my webhosting and domains and whatnot get paid with XMR.

    They are fairly diffent origins, viltrum is a conquering empire sending agents to other planets to conquer them, superman is the last son on a world that no longer exists and whos powers are stronger because of earths smaller yellow sun. Homelander was created by humans in a lab for marketing and profiting off of. On top of that it probabl also counts as parody.

    There are a lot of superheros with similar powers or similar origins, but i dont know of any that are similar enough to win a lawsuit.

    One that comes to mind is when DC sued over the similarity of captain marvel to superman But it was settled out of court and im not aware of any more recent ones.

    I miss when people made web browsers without appeasing advertisers. Remember when mozilla introduced the popup blocker and netscape actually incorporated that into their mainstream product? You never see stuff like that anymore because advertisers control everything on the internet now.

    I think you're right to be scared, the only thing stopping a corp like microsoft from doing it already is the threat of facing legal sanctions, which is more of an inconvenience then a threat to a corp like microsoft.

    If a single company has this level of control over our devices we've already lost.

    Can you imagine a company like dell decided tomorrow to only allow installation from their specific vendor locked market? People would just not buy those products, you wouldn't be demanding dell let you install linux, you just buy something else.

    Even if i had to use a pc that's 10+ years old, id choose that over using a new pc that can only run vendor approved software. I cant imagine anything a new devive like a phone might have that would change my mind about it.

    Its possible to have seerr search integrated into the main jellyfin search.

    Streaming torrents popcorn or stremio style is not very practical and never has been. Popcorntime still has working forks and stremio works with jellyfin to some degree but unless you also use a paid debrid service or maybe if you dont care about tanking your ratio on a private tracker There are jusy way better solutions: like using either an on demand iptv service inside jfin that costs about the same as debrid anyway but also gets you live tv.

    Not to say there isnt tons of room for improvement still, but a lot of progress is being made. I suggest to folx if jellyfin doesnt meet your standards yet, try back in a year and see how much progress gets made.
