Comment on Plex is locking remote streaming behind a subscription in April

I’ve been using Plex many years. I abandoned it about 1-2 years ago when they began their enshittification journey. Now I see they are continuing to double down on being assholes.
They do not need any more resources to allow people to use what already exists. Most people run their own servers, and, they track all that by the way. Hence why people moved away from it.
Don’t give them your money. Let them rot. They fucked their user base who built them.

This always baffled me when I had a friend who showed me his Plex server years ago.
So you’re using a service which makes it easy for you to host and access everything wherever you are, pulls in all the metadata for shows and movies and you’re not worried about them tracking all of that?
When I finally set my own up I used Jellyfin from the start, I prefer as little tracking as possible but thats just me
