    So they think it’s acceptable to charge people to access their own files. Good Luck with that morons.

      Yeah this is why I don’t use Plex.

      At one point I installed it on my NAS. It goes through the setup, and then says I need to make a cloud account. Wtf? I am running locally hosted software on locally hosted hardware to access locally hosted files. Why do I need any cloud for this?

      I don’t. I uninstalled it.

        As long as their not Plex’s files I see no Issue that they should be compensated for.

      I thought I read that there’s no charge if on the same network. It’s just for accessing your files remotely from other networks.

      It is enshittification for sure. At the core it makes sense to not have it free, since dynamic DNS is not free. However it is a very small cost
