Because Plex would never dare to turn this on by default for everyone…?

Yes this is the concent form I get.

I’ve changed the title to better align with the context. Doesn’t change the fact that Plex is a gobshite is ran by a company 🙃

Mate, I’m just posting what is on Plex’s own website. Their words, not mine. You might be able to opt out of this if you’re lucky, or maybe its off by default - idk. But let’s face it Plex is on a heavy enshittification roll, rolling faster than the contestants running for Cooper’s Hill Cheese-Rolling contest. Ain’t nothing stopping them from enabling this for all users much like what Roku did last year.

You can conscent to whatever you like. I’m not touch Plex with a stick.

I already do :) but ty

You wil have to clear your cache I think.

Can also read about the changes here:

you’re welcome :)

Dont think so no. Everything is docker and linux for a reason…

It could. But the co-founder and staff have replied on the thread without addressing it being false. Feel like they would have called it out being fake if it truly was.

Yeah fair enough, and I do agree. I only reused the title of the forum post where this was originally posted. Have changed the title up now.

Don’t know for sure ofc, but the co-founder has commented in the thread without addressing the issue. They’ve also closed the thread without addressing all together which also seems weird. Surely if it wasn’t him they would have said so?

In addition: Sharing this post form r/selfhosted which also describes the recent Plex situation lately, worth a read.

Leaving this completely unrelated link to a better alternative here: https://jellyfin.org/

Personally I like the new format more. Feels like a 2.0 update, with proper labels and such in added content.

Was slow for me too but loaded in the end.

I don’t run MicroOS myself so take this with a grain of salt. But this is usually how I do it, though there might be a better practice out there for this too.

Afaik, MicroOS by the sound of it, only ships with root by default, but rootless Podman should definitely be possible.

Normally, you need to set up user namespace mappings for your non-root user. Run these commands as root:

usermod --add-subuids 100000-165535 <yourusername>
usermod --add-subgids 100000-165535 <yourusername>

Then check they’re set up with:

grep <yourusername> /etc/subuid
grep <yourusername> /etc/subgid

This should give your regular user the ability to map container UIDs without needing root privileges. After that, Podman should work fine as your regular user.

Hope this helps a little 👍
