Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

With that, I mean, I guess we all agree you are going to get fucked by Plex at some point. They've been slowly cranking up the heat in the pot. I love my media library and I just couldn't stand waiting for the rolling boil. I've been using Adobe products since 1999. I recognize an abusive relationship when I see it.

You are more concerned with people's relationship with Plex than the people actually using it. I can't speak for free tier users, but lifetime pass holders have yet to be affected by changes in how Plex does business. Until that changes, can you please stop acting like the sky is falling?
