I don't get what the point of this is. I have never paid a cent for Plex. If I ever want to access my library remotely, I'll use something else.
What will you use? Because pretty much nothing else exists that is as easy and as widely supported as Plex.
It will probably be Jellyfin. I've dabbled with it in the past, but it's likely the best option once I finish transitioning to Linux anyway. I've been working on a home server to handle all media related activities instead of using my desktop 24/7, so this is something I'll incorporate into that project.
Well jellyfin is not made for remote access, which was my point.
