Someone else already said it and you've already swapped but I'll say it in detail:

when setting the server connection up you selected "ServerName (long string of numbers)" and not "ServerName (your IP - SECURE)"

this routes your connection through the Plex servers and makes it not a local connection anymore. this is extremely easy to do and forget you've done because it barely impacts performance

the more of them that did the better, honestly. Can think of some old fucks who'll have plenty of piss on their graves so the sooner they get into em the better

Nazis lives don't matter, otherwise you're right
