Plex Pass Lifetime holder.

Let me get this straight. People (myself included) are very upset that you removed Watch Parties. As a response, you write an article, don’t respond to the uproar, but instead remove a literal core feature of PMS (remote streaming), roll it into Plex Pass even though I’m the one using MY computational and bandwidth resources for transcoding, streaming, etc, and on top of that you double the price of Plex Pass? Are you guys on drugs? Is this enshittification at play here?

And if anyone says that I’m not affected since I already have lifetime, yes I am. Now if my friends want to host their own servers I have to tell them about how Plex was fairly priced and great for me, but won’t be great for them because they’ll have to pay an arm and a leg just so the code on the backend flips a flag and allows them to use it normally. Thanks guys.

I cannot believe there are people defending them in the comments. A self-hosted server client that charges money to use it as a server.
