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.

    You state that you have a plex pass and are a server owner. In that case you shouldn’t be affected, yet you’re saying you are… what?

      Just because I’m not affected doesn’t mean it’s not enshittification, and removing functionality that was free for over a decade.

        Oh yea but I mean this change isn’t recent (well, it is but it was announced some time ago), so I focused on the part where you said that even plex pass didn’t work

        I’m focusing on your edit
