    This past week I switched my server to Jellyfin and migrated all my users over to it after I just happened across a thread a month ago about Plex charging for remote streaming on the 29th of April.

    I never got an email from Plex about the change until April 29th… Scummy behaviour and I’m sure a lot of users and server owners bought their product in a panic as a result.

    So far Jellyfin works perfectly, all my users are on Rokus and the app works perfectly on there.

    Plex will only continue to get worse so I’m glad I made the jump.

      Considering that Roku doesn’t have a VPN option… Then I hope you’ve at least obfuscated your media paths so it’s not easily guessable on the complete unauthenticated endpoints for people to abuse/probe your server.

        I keep an eye on my server and trust issues will be fixed in time as more and more users dump Plex.

        Who knows what security issues Plex had and I ran that without issue. At least Jellyfin’s aren’t hidden.
