I heard Plex has something going on so people are switching to Jellyfin
I’m still using Plex successfully. I bought the lifetime pass for $75 a few years back and they haven’t been able to track me down and kill me off, so my movies find me wherever I pause long enough to watch a few minutes
They've banned the use of Hetzner
Why not others than hetzner
Plex has been garbage for longer than their latest outrage.
For sure, I swapped over when I was setting up my automated TV/movie obtainer after I ditched netflix last year, tried to watch something on my phone and it immediately starts complaining that I haven't bought the special version. Also GPU encoding was either nonexistent or paywalled too I don't remember. I'm not going to throw money at something before I've had a good enough period of it working how I'd like.
Oh really? I was just thinking about trying it. Maybe I'll look at other options first then.
Why jellyfin?
Preference aside, Plex has a single cheap lifetime pass that you don’t absolutely need, I don’t see how they can compare to any of this corporate squeeze you for every dime you got bullshit akin to blizzard and friends
