I bought Plex pass years ago for £79. The new price of $749.99 is INSANE.
No wonder all the cool people are using Jellyfin.

How about when they "accidentally" sent that email to all your users saying that they NEED to buy Plex Pass to continue to use remote streaming? Or when they had that "bug" in the app shortly after that, where remote streaming would give an error message saying that need to buy Plex Pass to stream your content?
Maybe they don't solicit from you, but they use dark tactics to trick your users, and that's not acceptable in my opinion.
You should have gotten it on May 1 2025, subject line "Remote streaming changes you need to know". I got it and I wasn't even using Plex any more, let alone with other users.
That did happen, lots of confusion with the users. Don't know why you are calling those other people liars.
Yeah, you did call them a liar.
They did tell you where to look for evidence.
Let me ask you this: why do you care so much? Plex has become a shitty company so why are you so adamant about defending them? Three people have told you this happened. Yet you are just digging in. Why?
At this point, maybe you should quit calling people liars (and then lying about doing so) and go find out for yourself. It was all over the forums when it happened, and it was very misleading. No big secret.
I copied your words. It's right there's in your history!
Wow.
And who blocks people? I have never done that in my decades of internet use.
Thus weird trend of say a last word, then blocking is so fucking stupid.
Do you not have Google where you live, or something?
I think you've lost track of who you're replying to.
