It's helpful to take a few steps back from time to time to reassess where we're each coming from on our knowledge of tech (or anything) to better communicate.

Also Plex trash software. It is extremely useful, but my god is it annoying to use and bloated with unnecessary nonsense.

Also sometimes it just randomly breaks for no reason at all. Like literally you've done nothing to it and it stopped working. Then you just fiddle with random settings until it starts working and nothing you did actually fixed it it just wanted you to twiddle some knobs
