If that's the case, then best case they're being incredbily scummy and my users are getting lied to. Of which, I won't just let them pay monthly for something they don't need.

They have the right to ask, but I don't have to pay. I've been playing with Jellyfin for about a month now, and I have to say, it's just as easy as Plex is. The only thing I had to do myself was make my own users. In fact, I tried Jellyfin a few years ago and was unimpressed - now all I see is Plex making stuff to make advertisers happy while Jellyfin is adding stuff to make it's users happy, to the point where I think Jellyfin has surpassed Plex.

Others in another thread are trying to convince me that the email is wrong, that my Plex Pass should mean everyone gets to stream for free. The email, however, kinda indicates otherwise. So who knows what's going on over there, but either way - I'm done

What do you want me to say? I hold a plex pass. I'm the server owner. My users are receiving that email.

I'm a server owner and had no idea. If I did, I would have left then.

I don't know if you're trying to exclaim that it doesn't cover it, or that it's a fair thing.

I'm a Plex pass holder on my server - and my user does not have a plex pass. From what I'm reading they need to pay a subscription to access my (Plex pass) server.

But but why are the studios who are focusing on making quality games doing okay?! - asks the profit focused studios

Right, but you could have just made one yourself. They're not hard to maintain. It's just a pile of yaml

Yeah I go from an OS that I know how to use up and down to an ad riddled bloated piece of garbage. Thanks!

Yeah, personally I'm optimistic, but I'd be in a boat of expecting access to be shut off one day, and ready to start uploading to a new provider at any moment

Welcome to the super fun club, I feel ya

I'm 99% sure it's something they just apply to all pages, not something done on purpose. Probably never even thought about it, everyone here is so quick to assume the worst.

My father went down that path, and has lost everyone that was ever close to him. His own children and mother don't speak to him. The rest of his family avoids him. He hasn't been to a family holiday in about 7 years now. I'm sure his hate keeps him company though

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to make your own instance and have it be your haven.

They won't. Firefox is all that stands in front of Google to avoid being called a monopoly. It's why they pay for Firefox. They'd be broken up in multiple countries for being a monopoly. This is just their easy way to say "see, look, we're totally not"

Yup. Superheroes, video games, it's all just established IP . Low risk

Oh that's AMAZING! I'm going to try it out tonight!

They literally had a hour long stream explaining what they did, and then you could have watched any of the thousands of twitch streams showing it. There was zero reason that you should have bought this if you thought this. I knew exactly what I was buying, seems like pretty much everyone did.

You are describing a remake. A remaster is a fresh coat of paint. Todd Howard said verbatim "This is not a remake" and then talked about his reasons why. You're going on like they lied to you when they literally said everything you just complained about, and then you still bought it.

Man the negativity. I'm so sick of gamers negativity. It's not even a new game, it's a remaster. you knew what the product was going to be. It's oblivion. We all knew it was oblivion. If you don't like oblivion, why did you buy it?!

I swear to God if they changed it too much I'd be commenting here on a post about how they had no respect for the original. Then we wonder why "they never listen to gamers". Because we bitch and moan about everything.
