      i never heard of it and have been using plex for years. i love that its open source. definitely checking it out. plex has been driving me nuts with all the extra crap theyve been adding. i just want my media

      Does it work outside of the home network as well as plex does? Also, do you think it is worth switching if I already bought the lifetime plex pass?

        Yes, but you’ll need to set up a reverse proxy and have a domain. I’ve switched and I hold a lifetime plex pass as well. Just didn’t like the fact that Plex was handling all the acct info etc. This way I control everything end to end.

        It should work, but I use tailscale so I can’t personally vouch for it. I don’t think it differs that much from plex tho, so if you are fine with it and you have already the pass, you aren’t losing out anything major
