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.

Tried it once, it's features and quality were so lacking I stuck with Jellyfin. I'd charge Plex $4999.99 monthly to let their software stay in my devices.

I bought one ages ago, but I left for Jellyfin when I ditched Windows. I hated the direction Plex has been going for years - if I wanted a content streaming service, I would have signed up for one... I just wanted a good way to stream stuff from my media server to my other stuff.

Jellyfin is basically what plex would have been if they didn't lobotomize themselves.

Roon did this and it made me stop using Roon.

Home assistant +music assistant is better now, and has fully replaced that for free.

Goodbye, shit companies.

I'm still using it because I already have a lifetime license. I'm just using it for music and local TV though. I use the DVR feature with a HDHomeRun tuner to record the local news and a few other shows.

I think Jellyfin has some music apps, but last I checked they're still not as good as Plexamp.

Navidrome and symfonium(paid) have been amazing to me for the last year. I'll never go back.
