server provider? what do you mean, they can ban my nas?

Nope, but they did make it so I get suggested streaming providers before my own bloody media. That’s why I switched to Jellyfin early this year. It’s rough around the edges but it’s functional.

Also, if you think this take is edgy, you clearly didn’t read the article. They literally brought up this exact thing coming up on social media. They’re actively making a call for developers to help.

You can disable this entirely.

I tried jellyfin before I decided to buy the Plex lifetime pass and it just flat out would not boot. The docker container kept failing and I tried various things to troubleshoot. Made me sad but I felt like it was time to finally commit to Plex after using it for like 8 years...

Some people host their plex on a VPS (basically your portion of a server on a cloud that you can do whatever with) server and Plex recently banned a really popular one suddenly.
