Can't you just hide the paid movies/tv tab? Or is it a principle thing

Is jellyfin better? I'd never heard of it 'til now

The biggest problem with Plex (I'm a user) is that you need a network connection just to use it with your local media unless you do a little research to figure out how to bypass this. Why is this a problem? You don't notice it until there's a network outage and you want to watch something. Or if the Plex servers are glitching. It's needlessly complicating the process of watching your media.

It's just a setting like so many other things. You can put in individual IPs you trust or IP ranges.

It seems Plex has figured out lots of Plex 'server admins' are just normal Windows users and click OK on everything w/o reading any change logs or checking any settings. So it's easier and saver to enable a lot of things right away. Admins can just go into settings and adjust it.
