I was just forwarded this someone in my household who watches our server. That’s it folks. I’ve been a hold out for a long time, but this is honestly it.

They want me to pay to stream content that I bought from my hardware transcoded also on my hardware.

I’ll say it. As of today, I say Plex is dead. Luckily I’ve been setting up Jellyfin, I guess it’s time to make it production ready.

Edit I have a Plex Pass. More comments saying “Just buy a plex pass” are seriously not getting it. I have a Plex Pass and my users are still getting this.

    “If you buy this product that might potentially change at some point in the future in a specific way that I can’t definitively say will occur but will absolutely be BAD™, you’re enabling the very change I totally said would occur and you’re out your money!”

    I bought in 2017. How exactly is my continued use of a purchased product enabling anything? As a Plex Pass user, this does not impact me, or anyone I share with, in any way.
