    Meh, I went into plex settings on the server and just turned off all the bloat. Its all on one page. Not a big deal.

        Sure, but you also don’t have the option to use those features because they don’t exist in jellyfin.

        In my plex instance, I have discover enabled, and enabled all the streaming services so that discover is populated with all the movies and shows available. Then I have an automation setup so I can search in discover for a movie, and add it to my watchlist, and my automation will automatically download that movie and add it to my library.

        I can do it right from my couch, and its WAF approved. Using those bloat features against them, in a way.

        But, its just as easy to turn those all off if one doesn’t want to utilize them. I’d be annoyed if they forced them on permanently but that’s not what plex does, but they sure get a lot of hate for just having those features.

          That’s a feature I wouldnt want in mine for example.
          I just want my stuff and only mine.

          But hey: Everyones gotta choose their own. And if youre happy, who am I to judge.

          Same, I’ve paid once, 12 years ago, and imo it was worth supporting them.
