minus-square@SirEDCaLot@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglish4•2 hours agoYeah this is why I don’t use Plex. At one point I installed it on my NAS. It goes through the setup, and then says I need to make a cloud account. Wtf? I am running locally hosted software on locally hosted hardware to access locally hosted files. Why do I need any cloud for this? I don’t. I uninstalled it.
