If you currently have lifetime/active subscription, your unpaid users/viewers will benefit from this by no longer having to buy the $5 one-time-fee unlocking of the Android or IOS app (this is nice for my in-laws who forget their google password and decide it's easier to make a new account than recover their password, ugh).
Eventually this may flow down to some negative impact on PP lifetime subs, but this announcement isn't as gloom and doom as some are making it.

How is jellyfisns android auto interface?
Jelly is free which is cool, but nobody ever talks about forcing me to rename all my content files. Just show me the name of the file as is, I don't care about your auto metadata look up and matching.
Agree, I wonder if Plex mentioned anything about that specifically? 🤔
I think it would be fair to offer a lifetime remote watch for these devices.
Tell this to Microsoft or Adobe, please

Basically almost any Nvidia 3GB or better card will be night and day difference for you. Personally I went with a Tesla P4 for $80 and 3D printed a fan holder for it. But that's a bit overkill, at the low end if you can find a GTX 1060 card for cheap that'd do the trick.

Intel arc graphic cards are fairly cheap and work well. I just bought one and it seems to hold up so far.
I got my jellyfin working locally last week after some tinkering but the files were named/categorized incorrectly. Then I realized I needed to do a bunch more work to allow it to be accessible remotely (external network) in case I was not home. Definitely not easy for the non-tech savvy folks.
Thanks
Plex lifetime has been amazing for me. I was a free user for years. Once you go paid and get trailers, skip intro, skip credits - gamechanger. So much value there just on those simple QOL things.
My fingers are tired, please fast fwd the intro for me!
Thanks
To do this, you need to get a hdhomerun prime tv tuner. It works with Plex.
Go Sox!

That's not really true. You can set up an hdhomerun prime with Plex. You'd need to get one of those and a cable card from your provider.
Most people don't do this because most Plex users are cord cutters, hence using OTA. But it's technically possible and enables making your own cable DVR and casting service.
