  Eh, tbh it still does the core basics of streaming my content and Metadata management, so I don’t really care about enshitification of ‘extra’ features that I never use. It’s still the easiest way to share media

    You think the enshittification will stop at the extra features you dont use?

      Yes, because the core mechanics of their platform is media metadata management and streaming. As long as those work, and my users don’t have to pay anything (because I have a plex pass lifetime already), then it has no effect on me or my users.

      All that extra stuff can just be turned off.
