I've been a really happy #Plex user for many years - have loved it, paid $100/year and invested a lot of time to get my #movies, #TVShows, and #music collections set up the way I want them.
Most recently, I've noticed that if I search for a movie that Plex have available in their shitty "watch this from our servers but with ads" tier, then that's the only search result I see for it, regardless of whether I have the same movie available to watch for free, without ads, from some other source.
Fuckers. It's over. I'm out. #JellyFin, here we come...
@zrail It really is. Like, not the end of the world, but absolutely demonstrates that there are people working at #Plex who are not remotely acting in the best interests of users. And even if I could be convinced that problem had been fixed, they have demonstrated the principle that it - or something like it - could happen again, at any time.
Commercial software is just an untrustable hazard and should be avoided whenever possible.
@tartley
They're continually updating Plexamp, and that's unrivaled in what it does. As far as Jellyfin, Plex still has the best client support by many miles
