So incredibly ready to ditch plex. $750 for what exactly? For transcoding my media? No that happens on my hardware. Oh for storing my media? No, also on my hardware. — Oh I know. They must have bandwidth costs. Wait no they use my bandwidth. — Anybody have any idea wtf…

Plex has turned itself into a poster child of enshittification and greed. — This is one reason why Jellyfin is becoming the best home-media software for so many people. — https://9to5mac.com/...

Plex Lifetime Pass is going to triple. You have until July to get the old price ($250) before it vaults to $750. — I think I paid $120 and not even that long ago. This is fucking grim. — www.plex.tv/blog/new-lif...

I'm a huge and longtime Plex fan but $750 for a lifetime plex pass is just begging people to pay $70 a year or move to Jellyfin.

Important Jellyfin pricing news: the monthly subscription remains $0, the lifetime pass remains $0, and the software is a whole lot less enshittified than Plex. — https://www.plex.tv/...
