Why is anyone still using plex?
After the last time they fucked over their userbase, jellyfin was created, an open source system that is awesome.
Dump plex, come to jellyfin, we got cookies.
https://jellyfin.org
I don’t want your cookies. I want privacy.
That's illegal
We got, uh, muffins?
Nuh-Uh, you provide the snacks, and the fin provides the juicy content chosen directly by you.
So, really, It gives you choice, and the freedom to choose... and that is what makes America so Great. (This silly remark brought to you by the movie currently streaming over jellyfin: Thank You For Smoking)
Far as I'm concerned, Plex can eat it's dry ass privacy cookies all it wants.
The Jellyfin experience on iOS and Apple TV is not as good as Plex. Hopefully someday that will change.
Probably because those are just as proprietary as plex
Jellyfin was forked when emby went closed source, I don't think it had anything much to do with any specific event at plex
It's been a while now but I remember it happened when Plex forked over their users
