I was recently gifted a Skylight digital calendar and have been slowly working on importing my family's various events and tasks into it. I have Sonarr running on my NAS, and since Sonarr has a calendar feed, I figured why not add in my TV download schedule. Initially
I've been working in marketing and advertising for somewhere around 15 years now, with the last 10 or so being focused on pay-per-click advertising. Google ads, Facebook ads, a few industry platforms you've never heard of and one time even Bing! I also wish I could
This was supposed to be a pretty basic article detailing my process of switching my media server away from Plex and over to Jellyfin. The process of switching the server itself was super simple: I already had my media libraries set up, already had an instance of Jellyfin available (just
