Use jellyfin instead, its FOSS and amazing.
The eternal debate, Jellyfin vs. Plex ๐
I tried both, i prefer Plex (also because my TV doesn't have a Jellyfin App and i don't want to have another mini-PC just to play Jellyfin on my TV)
I hear great things about Jellyfin, but I'm in the Plex camp too. The availability of the Plex app is a big factor. I'm a bit biased in that I bought a lifetime membership years ago so I get all the premium features as well. I believe they still offer deals on plex lifetime membership from time to time. It is really worth it!
Yup, got the 20% off of lifetime a couple months ago.
Didn't regret it.
To each their own of course, I just want other people to be aware of an alternative to Plex if they haven't heard about it.
