Yeah i am trying to go as open source as possible to avoid this kind of crap, plex is the only closed source thing i still use and that will be replaced by Jellyfin soon.
I tried jelly fin but have had plex for so long with lifetime pass it's hard to swap
same my biggest issue is having to go through the hassle of setting up tailscale on device for when not at home. I will admit I have been kind of putting off dumping plex.
