You can self host Plex and it has more developed features then jellyfin. Just Plex raised cost and it’s losing its edge for that. Lifetime was great and still is.

Sadly, Plex needs a subscription and it’s only worth it if you buy the lifetime on a flash sale.

yeaaaaaaah, and thats a big nope. Why does one need a subscription or a lifetime lease when you supposedly can self host? Subscription is what brought us into this mess in the first place.

Edit: I believe for me it was remote access ease of use by Plex that I use heavily.

Setting up a Wireguard / VPN isn’t that hard, and cuts out unwanted Corpos as well.

  A VPN setting up for a mother who has no technical experience and lives 3 hours away and a grandparent who’s 80 and lives 2 hours away is indeed hard.
