  • Several years ago I was looking to set up a media server and initially grabbed Plex because I’d heard so much good about it at the time. The moment it asked me to create an account with Plex during setup and I discovered this wasn’t optional I immediately uninstalled it.

    I remain baffled that anyone was okay with needing an externally managed account in order to use software running entirely on their own hardware, let alone the litany of additional enshittification that has happened since.








  • Had a conversation with someone recently about exactly this. Usage of AI generated assets gives me exactly the same feelings as a local business using a gmail or personal ISP email account on their advertising.

    It doesn’t automatically mean it’s bad, but it’s an indication that whoever is running things just can’t be bothered to put in effort.



  • My entire exposure to Jucika is here on Lemmy, but it seems like she enjoys attention on her own terms. She’s not about people creeping on her, but is absolutely willing to put on a little bit of a show for attention.

    Pretty strong sex positivity and consent messaging for the time it was published (57-70).
