Plex redesigns its app to look more like a streaming service - Lemmy.zip

> Streaming service and media software maker Plex on Friday introduced a redesign of its software that puts more emphasis on discovery, easily accessing your watchlist, and other personalization features — including those for home media enthusiasts who still use the app to organize their media libraries.

I host a media server of 72TB of classic movies, cancelled TV shows you can’t get on streaming. I do this for family and friends who don’t have the patience or know how to run a media server this size. I have a catalog of over 7k movies and 400 TV shows. I am likey the only use case for this. However I do appreciate it.

For personal use I usually suggest jellyfin.

My friend has a 5gbps fiber line in their home and also hosts some 30TB+ of content for friends & family. It’s easy to use. It is quite nice.
