yes , exactly pay their developers to do what ? I am sure that you dont get a salary for plex employees from plex pass or even if you get its not much as compared to what plex gets from investment. Most of the updates have not been community oriented. Otherwise, if developers are getting salary for development of features, then most of the feature suggestions in the forum would have been closed till now which doesn’t even need much time to be implemented. But again, as you said Plex is business.
The scenario is I have one plex account for my personal use, I want it to be used on my living room TV and so i just create managed user and it to be there and enable automatic sign in. But what i am watching on my laptop sometimes i want to watch on my living room TV so for my account i need a complex password or at least 6-digit pin. So that my brother doesn’t guess it and gets access to things which he shouldn’t. Now there are many combinations possible for 4-digit pins but why not add an extra layer of security?
These things are already there on emby and jellyfin and no doubt how old these threads (2-3 years) are and by the time plex implements it emby and jellyfin would already surpass plex in every aspect. Jellyfin won’t even take that much time.
This thread was relevant 7 years back and till now it remains relevant for plex
