Yeah. It’s a betrayal of trust in my eyes. They were the first company to get a genuine “plug-and-play” experience to 3D printing. They amassed a huge user base, then acted against those users’ rights. There’s no way in hell they win the lawsuit against them, so at least the people who have already bought printers from them should still be able to use them. But I would avoid Bambu like the plague from here on.

This isn’t the case here. Their printers are some of the best out there. Their cost is high but not unreasonably so for what you get. The company, on the other hand, is garbage. They’re breaking the law and doubling down saying they’ve done nothing wrong. People are pissed off about that, not their products.

I joined Plex after I already needed to have a login to plex.tv to be able to stream. I understand that that already was problematic, but Plex was leagues ahead of its competition in terms of ease of adding users, as well as polish. You must be forgetting how awful Jellyfin was in comparison, even just 5 years ago. I’ve been keeping up on Jellyfin and it’s amazing how far they’ve come. Now Jellyfin has great theme options, a simple-to-install skip intro/outro plugin, an app option with built-in jellyseerr integration, decent collections support (still needs some work here on feature parity with Plex, but it’s on the way) and with Wizarr, onboarding new users is as easy as sending an invite link, just like Plex. All this came in the last 5 years, and were pretty much requirements for my use cases.

Sure you can say that I’m picky, but Plex really was the best option until like, this year. I started to accept the need to switch when they added the social media aspect to it. They completely ignored what their users actually wanted. Since then, they’ve been making worse and worse decisions, which is crazy because now more than ever their competition has reached their level. Hell, by pushing all their users away, Plex is only going to accelerate the development on Jellyfin.

Been on Plex for years, I will be fully migrated to Jellyfin by the end of the week
