10%, $10, doesn’t matter.

Percentage isn’t inflation proof. Them taking a percentage only means it increases with inflation if the thing they’re taking a percentage of does too.

They haven’t increased prices in 6 years. Inflation over the last 6 years is like what, 30%?

How did you get that? They’re just consolidating their pricing tiers. There was an $8 one and a $12 one, now there is only $10. Smack bang in the middle.

They say they haven’t increased their prices in 6 years. That doesn’t mean their prices have stayed the same, oh no - that means that their prices have decreased over that time due to not keeping up with the massive inflation since then.

“What do they even do besides provide the entire platform for the creators?”

Come on man lol. If they were not needed they wouldn’t exist.

Gym memberships are insanely expensive

Wait until you see the price of weight plates and dumbbells.

You go to the gym to work out. You clearly don’t know how to work out, so go watch some exercise guides on YouTube.

You’re still not giving specifics or making any sense.

“Information could be a holiday, an insurance”

What on earth are you talking about?

Someone else set up your Plex server?

Cool, so you can finally admit you set Plex up wrong. Good job.

You set it up in the wrong way if you want to stream locally on your network.

It’s ok to admit that you made a mistake and it’s not plex’s fault. Just take some responsibility for your actions.

Again - you’re writing a lot but saying nothing.

What exactly are you talking about? Give specifics. What exactly are Microsoft “holding back”? How are they only keeping the status quo by having the most integrated all-in-one ecosystem on the market?

I’m not sure why you expect teams to be innovative in the first place?

You’re not lying, you’re just not good at networking and/or setting up Plex.

Plex does NOT charge for streaming on your own network. If it is saying that you need to pay it’s because you’ve set your network(s) or Plex up wrong.

You were the one that made the claim that “software doesn’t have huge ongoing costs”, which is what I said is wrong. Lots of software does, as you now agree.

You wrote all of that without actually saying anything.

How does any of….. that….. apply to this situation? Microsoft are one of the biggest pushers of “all digital” there is.

Yeah, anyone subscribing to girls on onlyfans is an idiot.

How are they incels? They’re involuntarily celibate. They’re paying girls on the internet to pretend to like them because real girls don’t.

Onlyfans isn’t a “scam”. People are paying for porn and they’re getting it. Where’s the scam?

Not sure if you’re aware, but it wasn’t written for Sunny. They just licensed it for use.

Same reason as all the others - “digital sovereignty”.

“Vulnerable”? No, we need to stop trying to paint every idiot as a victim. Incels aren't “vulnerable”, they’re just losers.

What on earth are you talking about by “promotes the old document/paper world”?

Saying software does not have huge ongoing costs shows you’ve never worked on any huge software system. My works ongoing costs for hosting/scaling/storing data are millions of dollars a year.

What media management and consumption platform did you buy?
