Yeah seems to be an emerging trend and I despise it. They’re doing face replacement in gifs as well which is particularly annoying. Usually of some streamer trying to self promote.

Thanks! I appreciate it. I actually do still use it, my comment was just more toward the changes they’ve made and my perceived inability to remove or change it.

The ‘Plex suggestions’, the constant return of rental prices when doing a search instead of just my media library. I had to remove a bunch of menu items they automatically added without my cosent during their last major update which seems to be when it all started. The search bit is especially angering because it’s lagging load times as it’s searching these online sources for rentals I don’t want instead of just pulling up the returns on my local media server. If there’s a setting disabling it I must have missed it because when they introduced the garbage I immediately scoured the settings to try and turn it off. Those are the main two off the top of my head.

Honestly ever since Plex started going the enshittification route and hocking their fucking bullshit instead of just being a home server it’s been irritating the shit out of me. The only thing they aren’t doing at this point is adverts live vids.

Straight up laughed out loud. What a mental image. Thanks for the chuckle man.

Any. The answer is any. I’ll knock the fuck out of a geriatric ignoramus while god damned polka music is in the background. But if I had to choose…Get to the Gone by Static X

Got me, haha. Thanks for the laugh.

It really is considering how easy it would be to implement.

Honestly I just want tax included on the price tag.

I get trashing Zucker, fuck that guy. But, hear me out: first gen tech used to be big and bulky and that was okay because it’s assumed over time efficiencies will be found and future models will improve. Computers and phones being the most glaring examples. Tvs as well. It may look like shit, and be by a company we hate, but if it gets enough of a foothold we should look forward to other companies and other models. I keep hoping the same on the VR front as well.

But they had to make it PvP as well so here we are.

Nice to know there are others out there like myself. I’m not this far in the extreme, but I very obviously have northern genetics and I live in the humid South. I abhor summer and dream of winter. I just want to live somewhere where I don’t become dehydrated from less than 30 minutes of effort outside.
