I’ve feel like I’ve used Plex forever. I also feel like every couple years I try Jellyfin to see how it’s going. Recently I tried it again because of Plex restriction on more than one user.

Well, I just tried it again and it’s substantially improved! This time it actually properly detected most of my library!

Also the Android TV app is AWESOME! No more glitches, lagging, and freezing trying to play my stuff like Plex did. It is butter smooth.

Wow! I’m impressed and I just deleted Plex. Good riddance.

    Plex is closed source and gradually being enshittified. You might not leave today, but you should have an exit plan.

      I’ve been using Plex for over 10 years and I can’t say anything about it has changed for the worse honestly

        Same. I think I had to go in once in the last few years to turn off a new setting. I didn’t recall what is was though. Probably data collection?

          Maybe when Plex added the “Discover Together” feature that shares watch history with friends?

            Yeah, I don’t 100% love that’s on my default but I also don’t think it’s a huge deal
