What would you like OP to do? Nothing they’re doing is helping or hurting Plex. Nor is it helping or hurting anyone else.

Plex is enshittifying. I’m not sure how much they care about the opinions of Lifetime Pass users, or particularly care whether those people continue to use the service, at least when it comes to streaming personal media libraries.

For example, Windows is thoroughly enshittified, but I’m not going to tell users of Win 10 that they need to switch away right now, or that they’re bad people for continuing to use an old product they previously paid for. Just that they should jump ship whenever they’re ready to move on from Win 10.

I don’t think OP said literally any of that, so I’m confused. OP already has a lifetime Plex pass, so OP is sticking with plex, since as the server owner, a plex pass covers everyone streaming from their server.

I’m still not sure who’s being fucked in the context of what OP wrote. Either way, nothing OP is doing is financially supporting Plex, because that ship already sailed back when they bought a lifetime pass.

I mean, if you already have a lifetime pass, it’s not like you’re giving them anymore money or supporting them from here on out. Not sure how that’s “fuck you, got mine.” Who exactly is being fucked here? It would make more sense if Plex had a limited number of passes that people hoarded early on like boomers with property. In this case the financial side of things is already a done deal, and doesn’t somehow deprive others of a resource.
