Yo ho ho, what the fuck did you expect? Off to sail the high seas.
the more they remove, the more i'll be using my plex server (or Jellyfin if Plex also enshitifies itself)
Plex has already been enshitifying itself for years. Their own streaming channels, ad supported streaming, their creepy activity log sharing, banning servers run on entire hosting services, cracking down ever more on piracy. Hell I've seen reports where they banned people hosting on their own residential connections and sharing with friends and family, then emailing those friends & family and falsely informing them their host was running a commercial piracy service. And next month they become a store for movie and TV rentals.
Really it's time to just bite the bullet and swap to Jellyfin.

They'd have to do a hell of an enshittification to completely ruin Plex, if only because there are old versions floating around that will let you run a server without ever logging in to Plex itself. Though at that point it'd probably be easier to switch to Jellyfin.
