    So, just because they added a few features, you’re not interested in, futures you don’t have to use or even see, you wanna switch to a far inferior alternative? And people are supposed to believe this is a reasonable argument?

      If it does the basic things that I want it to do well without being surrounded by the bloat of useless profit-driven features, and it’s FOSS, then it isn’t inferior to me.

      The only meaningful update (to me) Plex has had in the past few years has been forcing everyone to switch from using TVDB to their inferior metadata agent.

        How is it? ”Bloat”if you never see it and it doesn’t affect you? And if your problem is with capitalism, and that’s why you want something for free instead, then you can just say that. It doesn’t make Plex look less superior an option in features and pick abilities than jelly fin. Jellyfish me “work”, but Plex works a lot better. If that doesn’t interest you, that’s fine. Use what you want.

        Like I said in another comment, some people are perfectly happy with a cheap scratchy toilet paper. I am not one of them.
