Given the recent news about Plex soon charging for remote access, I wanted to finish up my switch to Jellyfin.

What tools/methods have you all used to migrate watch history to Jellyfin?

I have a few family members in there, and would like to get everything switched over without resetting their watch history.

Bad advice to be paying them after they chose to go this route IMHO

Agreed. It encourages that behavior.

I don't agree. They're only affecting people who haven't been paying and it's an excellent service. They're even giving you a heads up so you're not caught offgaurd. It's not even 9 months of Netflix and it's valid for lifetime. If you can't afford it, that's one thing. If that's the case move to JF and move on. I find Plex is very much worth the cost.

Pay even more money for the inferior product. Good advice.

Crying about a non-issue isn't exactly going to change anything is it? Plex is an awesome service or you wouldn't have been using it.
