Existing Lifetime Plex Pass memberships are unaffected by the upcoming price hike; if you already locked in your sub at a lower rate, you won’t have to pay any additional fees, and your service isn’t changing
For now. It’d be mildly annoying to have to switch to Jellyfin, or some other option, but I have no qualms ditching Plex if it turns to crap. Don’t ever give into the sink cost fallacy.

It’s a US-American company, of course it will turn to crap. Enshittification is everywhere.

The only reason I’m still using plex is the smart TV I have doesn’t support Jellyfin. Time to set up a Linux stream box that does support it (and whatever else I want).
