Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.
minus-squareTechnoguyfication@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29·6 hours ago I’ve been the one setting up the TV app, etc. That is exactly the issue. I can’t personally set up the app for all my users. Most of them are not in my household.
