Yes, I think part of the trick is that the CEO is a great video producer and has a large fanbase for his yt channel who are very enthusiastic about his ideas even if they won’t actually buy such a phone.

I think the problem is that they grossly over estimated how many people actually wanted to buy a “legit” Commodore branded Commodore Ultimate when they came up with the idea to buy the Commodore brand.

Now they are trying to come up with ways to make it profitable but they don’t really seem to understand Product Market Fit.

I think it would be a better idea to do some high quality branded merch.

What are you doing Hermes?

I do think the Ultimate C64 is very nice. If it came out 5-6 years ago I would have bought it. By the time it came out tho, I have already put together a couple of my own “ultimate” C64s. For someone who is starting from scratch I would certainly suggest a Commodore Ultimate.

For me, I’ve been hoping they would do something more like the Mega65.

That’s the thing. I already have almost a dozen original and remake Commodore 64s. Also Plus/4, C128, and so on. I don’t know who the target market of the new Commodore is, but it doesn’t feel like its me.

Come on Commodore, I want a retro computer with new Herdware in it. Not some crippled linux phone.

Yeah and why doesn’t anyone worry about quicksand anymore?!

I don’t know but I suspect that first getting to know a community and then making an effort to keep your posts on topic will go a long way to help.

You can show the show, watch the watch, show the watch, and watch the show! Its a world of possibilities out there for showing and watching…

You drink a drink and you eat an eat. Like in the show Good Eats.

Reading this thread, it seems like two different groups of people are having two different conversations.

For me, self-hosting is just that, running my own stuff at home for myself (and my immediate family). My motivation is privacy and freedom. I want to use services that are free of commercial incentives against my interests whenever possible. That usually means self-hosting my services.

I’ve been a system and network engineer for most of my career and I like configuring and managing stuff. I like knowing how everything on my home network runs, where and what data is shared, etc.

As soon as people start talking about “my users need …” I’m out. That sounds too much like what I do at work. I want to relax when I’m at home. Jellyfin is perfect for me to do that with my content without needing any of my data to go to any companies.

For everyone who wants to be an IPTV operator, Plex is the best choice right now. Jellyfin isn’t really focused on that use case.

WhatI’ve noticed is that people who prioritize privacy and just want to watch their downloads on their tv usually use jellyfin and people who prioritize ux slickness and want to run an IPTV service for their friends and family usually use plex.

ugh this one time i was visiting a friend in nyc. maybe like 2010. she takes me to this party and i see this guy there wearing a limewire shirt. so i go up and ask him bro do you work for limewire? he says “naw man but i used to” and my mind is blown so i ask him what it was like and he thinks for a sec and then he says “it was wild man” and i didn’t even know what to say after that.
