  • I have gigabit, and struggled to stream. Turned out I had the Quality of Service (QoS) /traffic priority settings on my router misconfigured.

    This might be something to look into.

    Can a remote user download something from your network at a reasonable and consistent speed? (Not using Plex)

    Can you upload a large file somewhere and monitor the speed and see if it maintains speed as expected?

    For me, these two things were also performing at unexpectedly low speeds, or being wildly inconsistent until I fixed my QoS settings.







  • That really does sound like a bag of hurt.

    But it also sounds like a fuller alternative to what the big guys offer. And in the long run it would make it a well rounded space and protocol.

    It’s too bad that it sounds like it both isn’t straightforward to implement properly, and attracts heat.

    I wish them luck. Privacy and security would be great. People do use these spaces as direct messaging platforms. Even if it’s not the best all around idea. As social spaces evolve, the way people message evolves too. Making it secure earlier in that cycle is good.
