We are also changing how remote playback works for streaming personal media (that is, playback when not on the same local network as the server). The reality is that we need more resources to continue putting forth the best personal media experience, and as a result, we will no longer offer remote playback as a free feature. This—alongside the new Plex Pass pricing—will help provide those resources. This change will apply to the future release of our new Plex experience for mobile and other platforms.

    Jellyfin depends on proprietary Microsoft .NET, even on Linux.

    It’s still better than Plex and Emby, which are fully proprietary, and have no source code. But I will stick with sshfs with kodi, and nginx plus mpv for now.

        @Smash @Limonene Right, it *was* proprietary. Which is why adoption of it by free software devs is so slow. Ubuntu only got dotnet packages in the past few years! (RIP @vorlon )
