When did/does the grandfathering period end?
I hadn’t heard that aspect of it before and would like to know more.
Thank you for the info!
I don’t know maybe 2023?
And the account had to have a Plex pass at the time.
Ok, if you find any info on that please post it. I’m going to be on the look out for it and do the same if I find it.
I’ve had a plex pass since before 2023 so this doesn’t affect me either way.
But 2023 doesn’t sound right for when the grandfathering ended. I do not doubt that there is an end date for grandfathering but for that to have happened in 2023 sounds punitive towards their users and not a good long term strategy.
Sure, enshittification and all that. I don’t doubt greed is the motive but they had to have known by ending grandfathering 2 years before implementing a policy like this would stir a user revolt and strengthen their competition. Especially with all the increased enshittification they have pushed out over those 2 years.
