What's Plex doing? I thought the whole point was to just be a dumb way to host your own server, and then maybe charge for curation or other convenience that you can do yourself.

I have Emby because of availability (no idea why, but Emby was on my Samsung TV app store but not Plex), but its odd to hear of such a service also trying to be greedy.

They're turning it into a social network.

The best part is they made an update that by defaults sends e-mails your friends telling them your watch history. A feature I am sure is very well liked by all porn aficionados.

Plex is trying to pivot to legitimacy and become a streaming service.

They push their own ad supported streaming. They continually place adult oriented recommendations where my kids can see (no matter how many times I remove them).

This is probably not what they had in mind, but Plex is still a somewhat centralized product, they recently disabled/banned all servers that were hosted on Hetzner's IP range.
