I’m from Spain.

But I know that in Latin America they also used to change the title of some media sometimes. Funny enough they used different titles than in Spain.

For instance, the movie “White Chicks” in Spain is “Dos rubias de pelo en pecho” and in Latin America is “¿Y donde están las rubias?”.

It’s also just two words. Spanish worlds tend to be longer than english ones.

“Muertos” is a direct translation of “dead”.

“Evil” would be “maligno”, but “terroríficamente” was used "which would be like “terrifying”.

Anyway spanish translations used to change a lot the titles of the movies back in the day, most famously “die hard” is “la jungla de cristal” (directly translated as: the glass jungle) here.

I’ve heard that they did this because direct translations or english titles didn’t work as well here, and a change in the title made more people want to watch the movie.

Nowadays this happens way less, most titles are direct translations or use their english title directly.

It works for me. But only for some movies.

For instance “terroríficamente muertos” is the spanish name for “evil dead”. And I can search both titles and jellyfin finds the movie.

I have jellyfin and metadata download set to spanish. It doesn’t seem to work with all movies though. Maybe some movies do include a secondary title in the metadata and that’s what’s being used?

Libraries where good for before the XXI century. Nowadays the amount of content they had is pretty small. Most libraries don’t really has anything but the more famous books.

We live in a system that actively prevents humans to get more knowledge, go figure.

No everything has to be for profit in this life.

I’ve no contract with them, I’ve not made any purchases. They post something online for anyone to see.

They are completely free of locking their content behind a paywall, there are plenty of platforms for that.

But I want to make my first statement clear: no every single thing any human being does has to be done just for the sole purpose of getting an economical profit. That would be the death of humanity.

I still remember 90s internet when we had tons of websites with lots of content that was just there because the creators were fans of such content, no further intentions. Barely any ads or monetization whatsoever. The ‘shark’ mentality is killing internet.

I’m glad they came out as what they already were.

It was clear that they did not feel as a non-profit foundation for many years now.

I’ve been way more than a decade (closer to two decades) uninterruptedly using Firefox. I’ve never used chrome as a my main browser, ever.

But still, I’ll be naive if I didn’t recognize that this kind of shit will affect me even if it’s just indirectly.

Next year they’ll surely will be forcing many webs only working in “manifest V3 compliant browsers”. I’m sure of that.

Is there a p2p based equivalent?

I don’t even know how would that work, but seems something that would fit here.
