In fairness to Plex, I bought a Lifetime subscription during a Black Friday deal over a decade ago and it's still serving me well to this day.
I have jellyfin set up ready to go but Plex has the UX down at this point. I'll keep using it whilst my lifetime subscription remains valid.
Same here, JF is on reserve but I'll be sad if I ever need to switch. Ever since they fixed downloads I have 0 major complaints. Plex just works, and it works very well for my and my family's needs. I am perfectly happy paying once for software that I use every single day.
God I hate their last UX change. It's like they specifically designed the roku client to hide your own content and favor theirs, used to be one click into my library and everything was there.
