Selfhosted

Stopped using plex, replaced with jellyfin

Thanks for the headsup. This is the final push I needed. Been running Jellyfin for 6months or so but need to put more time into it. Plex has been great, and I’ve also been paying (though felt a little conflicted) a sub which I’m willing to do if it keeps a worthwhile project on an honest trajectory aligning with my needs and restrictions, for a good service or product. However they're now doing exactly why I started on the self hosting path. Who’s to say the third party is jot going to be a heavy handed industry body, corrupt authority , let alone the problematic world of adsales? They’re walking a very strange line and seem very confused about their purpose. Other than the all ruining ‘growth’. Seeya plex.

We are altering the deal. Pray, we do not alter it further.

python -m http.server is still my media server of choice. It's never let me down.

How else can they afford to stream samurai cop 3 and other things you never asked? You guys need to support them in becoming the best corp they can be! They want to be big boys now.

Last shit they pulled I moved to Jellyfin. Today I deleted my Plex account.

Even if you can mental gymnastics into believing this won't affect you, we know that's the way Plex is going. How long until it does?

hashed email xD, if someone has email it's just hash(email) == email. given how many emails leaked producing hashes of 90% of population emails is not a problem

I assumed they already were.

No chance Plex wasn't making money from those who didn't pay for Plex Pass.

Force PlexPass first, get money, then change terms.

Coordinated big-brain evil.

Big plus - identify all accounts interested in privacy. Thus = suspicious accounts.

This is the path for Plex to become Digg, Playon, and reddit.

I can imagine this data would sell for quite a bit of money. Networks love to winge about how much they lose to piracy

I would simply click I Do Not Agree and then throw the computer in the trash
