I got a Plex lifetime sub back in the day. They never got rid of it, but they did enshittify the product out from under me.
Same here, although I'm still using it. It's doing what I got it for and some of the additions are welcome (I use live TV fairly often and some friends and I are sharing libraries) but I have been concerned. What made you switch and did you find something better?
I still actively use Plex, but I've been trying Jellyfin. It's almost there but still has some work to do to catch up to Plex fully. However, its wonderfully free from bloat. I can't stand all the crap they've added to Plex. Especially when I search for content that's IN MY LIBRARY and the result it sends me to is a streaming service I don't even have. 😡
Yeah, I have never really used search for that same reason, I don’t have enough to lose track of anyway.
Thanks for the reply though. I hear about jellyfin a lot and my needs are simple so I’m gonna give it a go.
