I run a jellyfin server and give access to about 10 friends. I just kicked everyone out and the new rule is, that I will only stream to linux devices.

So there will be a few streaming boxes at friends places and I thought this could be a nice opportunity.

**Some ideas I’ve had: **

  • distributed backups
  • botnet (I always thought about playing around with a smal botnet on socials to do some fun experiment)

If anybody has cool ideas, please share : )

Edit: Everything runs on tailscale

    I’ve got most of that running on my 2 servers anyways - was more looking for something where I benefit from having a lot of computers at peoples houses.

      anything ‘worthwhile’ is probably gonna use a lot of power, burn through bandwidth, or not exactly completely legit and legal.
