It used to be that simple: r/plexshares, click any link, join the server, watch all you want.

Well, they really cracked down on that. Plex purged the servers en masse, my server switched to some obscure emby, r/plexshares is closed for good.

I'm in a need of a new server. Where do I even go? What platform is best to sail the seas now? Jellyfin?

P.S. my torrent days are over, thanks. I'm not interested in self-hosting anything either, again, thanks. 10$/month is a reasonable subscription fee for an all-you-can-eat streaming service

I appreciate this post. It's brought out some interesting comments and I've been able to block some idiots who apparently think they're gatekeepers.

I went through the same thing as you but when we moved to Emby, things have been better. Plex was always crashing when I'd search.

If you can get back with them, give Emby another shot.

I think self-hosted might be better but I don't have the ambition right now. I'm reading up on it but I need to finish a couple of other projects first.
