Been using Plex for a few years now and the wife seems to use it exclusively for most of her viewing. Even showed her how to use Overseerr to make requests. Even still, the other day she said she "sometimes misses Netflix". Guessing she means how Netflix would curate content based on her viewing and also the mini previews while hovering over content. I'm sure i'm not the first person to receive this complaint, has anyone figured out a way to get something like this into Plex replicate the feeling of browsing through Netflix? I feel like I always know what I want to watch so Plex is great for me, but I realize that some people need some more guidance in picking out something to watch

Stop listening to a stupid woman. Also, stop using Plex. Just use Jellyfin.

Just pay for netflix stop torturing your wife.
You're still saving plenty every month not being plugged into multiple streaming services.

Pay the woman tax

I don't think you get the point of streaming services like Netflix.
The point is not the watch a movie or a show you like, the point is to be a part of the "current thing". By having Netflix it means you (your wife) can watch whatever everyone is currently watching so she can talk to them about it and not feel left out.
That's the entire point.

>installing a thing that needs a login and credit card details and 2fa just to watch your pirated movies.

Plex is to /tv/ what Mister is to /v/.

Have you tried slapping her? I don't mean full on domestic abuse. I mean the kind of "give her a slap to keep her in line" thing that Sean Connery advocated.

Plex just needs a Netflix skin mod, where the logo is changed and the UI is mimicked like Netflix’s

So you're the brutish control the remote kind of man. Die out already

serious question about a mans reasoning. Do you steal to save a few dollars or do you steal for satisfaction of fucking someone out of their dollars

Hollywood and Netflix both fund/donate en masse to Israel.
Your subscription fee and movie tickets literally go directly to bombing and starving children.
Gonna laugh so hard when you die and get sent to hell because piracy was what you were supposed to do.

>>
>>214527426
no matter how much they modernize the UI plex is a nerds app, plain and simple no matter how much she puts up with it your wife does not want to use that shit. just fucking pay for netflix and use plex for stuff you can't find on regular streaming

You would have to ask the people who charge a lot of money for content that can just be easily copied, I copy because it isn't stealing and nobody is being deprived of the original, why aren't you paying license fees for every word you use that you didn't invent yourself?

You can download shows the moment they are released to Netflix.

People are addicted to the mindless browsing of things they don't really care about but watch anyway while not paying attention.

Can someone explain what this Plex thing is to me?

So it's like a pirating website? But I heard that you also have to have some device to stream it from or something.

>Plex thing
Its a theft ring
>>
>>214532729
Let’s say you have a pirated movie on your computer and you want to watch it on your phone but it’s not on your phone. Install plex on the computer and now you can stream the movie to your phone.
>>
>>214533049
Why wouldn't I just transfer the movie to my phone via cable or some shit

If you rarely leave the house or have no friends, it's not that useful, you're right

This. Women are retarded and like advertisements and limits so you can buy whatever the cheapest tier is and she'll be happy.

it's like the nightclub from Night at the Roxbury where the lineup to the club IS the main attraction.
the mindless browsing experience IS the television & film. everything else is just extra
