And Plex doesn't require any. It's okay to accept that one product can be more polished than the other, and Plex has a lot of stuff that "just works"

And it is ok to accept that Plex is getting worse and worse. Only reason why ppl use it these days is because they still have an old lifetime pass. As soon as they take it away or introduce a new tier of features or even removing features of it, they will swarming away from Plex.

And they will!

OC never said anything to do with your comment, you seem to be really offended by recommending an alternative to a tool that you use.
