Elijah, much as some of this stuff is a bit annoying/frustrating, I think you’re over-egging the pudding. Firstly, if Plex is so bad that you think they’re going to go out of business, why are you even on the forums? I mean, if the software is so terrible, uninstall it and go and use a different product instead. The fact that you’re still here, posting, shows they have a value proposition that you’re interested in, regardless of the foibles, which means they’re less likely to go out of business.And secondly, if you think Plex’s arrogance is “never achieved before in the computer industry” I guess you don’t know much about the computer industry.
They’ve got some stupid bugs, and some issues which could be fixed pretty simply with some trivial workarounds, but I could come up with 20 examples far worse in the time I’ve worked in the industry.
Reading comprehension is a lost art.
I never said I thought Plex was going out of business soon, What I said was:
However I expect the “Plex Dance” to remain a “thing” until Plex goes out of business as Plex never believes anything is wrong with anything they do. Plex pushes arrogance to a level never before achieved in the computer industry.
Virtually every company eventually goes out of business, it just takes longer with some.
Also the recognition of hyperbole should be better taught in schools.
Hyperbole
Hyperbole is the use of exaggeration as a rhetorical device or figure of speech. In rhetoric, it is also sometimes known as auxesis. In poetry and oratory, it emphasizes, evokes strong feelings, and creates strong impressions. As a figure of speech, it is usually not meant to be taken literally.
