@silvermoon82 Wait. Isn't "remote media streaming" literally the whole thing that Plex does?

@joepie91@social.pixie.town @silvermoon82@wandering.shop That's where they started, but then they started adding other features and typical 'streaming' capabilities. I cannot believe that the OG functionality... literally the only reason plex exists... is being moved behind a pay wall though. What the HELL are they thinking?!

@joepie91@social.pixie.town @silvermoon82@wandering.shop Sorry, by 'typical streaming capabilities' I meant like... Hulu, YouTube, etc. IE, 'watch stuff online via Ads or paying for it'.

@red_sky @silvermoon82 I have no idea why anyone would want to buy that kind of service from Plex

@joepie91@social.pixie.town @silvermoon82@wandering.shop I agree! Once it sort of became clear to me where Plex was heading with their additional features and stuff being locked behind 'Plex Pass' (like on-demand re-encoding, for example), I looked away and never looked back. Jellyfin all the way.
