It’s like they are trying to irritate people into canceling their accounts.
Imo, this one might actually be worse than the account sharing and cause people to quit. As soon as you have people messing around with their subscription version, it’s all too easy to just say “nah, I actually don’t want this anymore”.
Oh, 100% right there. Those of us that are both willing to cancel and capable of setting ourselves up with an alternative like Plex are, sadly, in the minority. I’m doing my bit, though. Have invited a couple of friends to my library and showed them how to use the app, and they’ve happily cancelled their Netflix as well.
Personally I prefer jellyfin but I’ll usually stick Foss where Icabn
Yeah, I tried Jellyfin but, at the time, it wasn’t as well-featured as Plex. I might go back for a second look but, as I got Plex Pass lifetime sub on special, there’s no ongoing cost to offset against the pain of getting my family to adopt yet another new app.
