I was just forwarded this someone in my household who watches our server. That’s it folks. I’ve been a hold out for a long time, but this is honestly it.

They want me to pay to stream content that I bought from my hardware transcoded also on my hardware.

I’ll say it. As of today, I say Plex is dead. Luckily I’ve been setting up Jellyfin, I guess it’s time to make it production ready.

Edit I have a Plex Pass. More comments saying “Just buy a plex pass” are seriously not getting it. I have a Plex Pass and my users are still getting this.

    its not tricking your device, that’s how you maintain a connection to your home network. you don’t even need to send all traffic through the tunnel, most wireguard apps can do split tunneling per app.

    setting up wireguard is really not that hard, and you don’t even need to update it because it’s in the kernel.

    Ok, how do you think you can avoid paying Plex’s remote streaming if you really really don’t want to just buy a lifetime Plex pass?

    with wireguard.

    or open up 80 and 443 and let the fun begin if you are adventurous.
