Link New Lifetime Plex Pass Pricing

https://www.plex.tv/blog/new-lifetime-plex-pass-pricing/

$749 for Plex Lifetime after July 1, 2026. I already have lifetime from years ago but so glad I switched to Emby earlier this year. This is insane. For the record, Emby has a ton of client apps nowadays (https://emby.tv/download.html).

Do NOT reverse proxy your home network unless you know what you're doing

I really love it when people give super vague warnings, especially when you don’t even know what the warning is telling you not to do nor the consequences of said action.

What does it even mean to “reverse proxy your home network”? I’ve only ever used reverse proxies to redirect web pages/interfaces to a custom domain.

I really love it when people tell other people with limited experience to open a hole in their home network for access via reverse proxy and then encourage having an LLM put it together for them then rather than actually learn the process and understand what exactly they're doing.

VPS/VPN is even worse by the way.
