Jellyfin to quadruple their prices following Plex's price increases (old.reddit.com)

If you haven't seen it yet, we recently made the announcement that starting July 1, 2026, the price of "Jellyfin Premium+ One Super Unlimited (with Ads)" will increase to $0.00 USD*. There has been a lot of enthusiasm regarding charge backs, and we're simply blown away by the community's response.

As we've had a high volume of inquiries, I'd ask if you could please wait until I'm off the support email shift to reach out about this issue. I've attached our schedule so you'll know when it is safe to reach out.

Thanks, and happy streaming!

*Example price in USD. Exact pricing in other currencies may vary.

So true! But I found a trick where you can get Jellyfin cheap if you buy it pretending to be a resident of another country. Here's some prices:

Vietnam - 0₫ (VND) India - ₹0 (INR) Indonesia - Rp0 (IDR) Philippines - ₱0 (PHP) Thailand - ฿0 (THB) Mexico - Mex$0 (MXN) Brazil - R$0 (BRL) South Africa - R0 (ZAR) Turkey - ₺0 (TRY) China - ¥0 (CNY) Malaysia - RM0 (MYR) Egypt - E£0 (EGP) Argentina - AR$0 (ARS) Japan - ¥0 (JPY) South Korea - ₩0 (KRW) Singapore - S$0 (SGD) Australia - A$0 (AUD) New Zealand - NZ$0 (NZD) Canada - C$0 (CAD) United Kingdom - £0 (GBP) European Union countries - €0 (EUR) United States - $0 (USD)

I'm starting to think about getting a VPN so I can fake my location for these geographic dynamic pricing systems.
