      the more they remove, the more i’ll be using my plex server (or Jellyfin if Plex also enshitifies itself)

        Plex has already been enshitifying itself for years. Their own streaming channels, ad supported streaming, their creepy activity log sharing, banning servers run on entire hosting services, cracking down ever more on piracy. Hell I’ve seen reports where they banned people hosting on their own residential connections and sharing with friends and family, then emailing those friends & family and falsely informing them their host was running a commercial piracy service. And next month they become a store for movie and TV rentals.

        Really it’s time to just bite the bullet and swap to Jellyfin.

    Wait, I thought they already did this. They switched me to the Premium tier a few months ago and I couldn’t switch back, so I canceled. I assumed it was that way with everybody.

    I wish I could browse Netflix without an account. That’s one thing that I haven’t found as good about Stremio, discoverablity.
