Roku is broken. Plex staff/mods don't care!

Absolutely embarassing that not a single person from Plex has decided to actually address the issues people have been having with the new Roku app.

THE NEW ROKU APP DOESN’T WORK. IT’S NOT A “CREATIVE” COMPLAINT ABOUT THE UI, IT’S A COMPLAINT ABOUT IT NOT ■■■■■■■ WORKING.

Do better plex, and by extension the staff and moderators for not giving a ■■■■ about their ■■■■ up.

This is purely a money-grab and a sad attempt to build an “all-in-one” interface that literally no one asked for. They don’t want users streaming their own content because they don’t make anything off that.

I loved Plex because it was separate from that crap. I didn’t open Plex to see what Netflix or Fubo or Tubi was streaming. I opened Plex so I could stream the media library I have.

This needs to be reversed or allow users to use the old interface.

I agree its horrible and I am looking at switching to Jellyfin or Emby at this point. Its a forklift move for me at 20TB of media to have to redo everything. I am so pissed right now that I dont care. Whoever developed the UI for Roku and the other platforms had their head up their back ends for sure.

I already started moving stuff. I would deal with the awful interface short term if the app worked of there was reassurance they were working on it but I’m still in the same place I was yesterday with a non-working client and one person from the company asking me if I restarted the app and then nothing. I understand that there are hundreds of people with problems here but just a post “We’re working on it” or “Screw you, you’re stuck with this” would be a step up.

Yeah, even after steps that everyone has tried, and even factory resetting my Roku, and it is still non-functional. Instead of wasting more time on this, I’m just moving to Jellyfin. My friends are all saying “I told you so,” because they recommended Jellyfin and I went with Plex.
