Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

I think it's not congruent with wanting to improve jellyfin if your reflex is immediately to say that nothing is truly secure.

At no point in life I said that.

Jellyfin has proven with the latest RCEs that they can handle relevant critical security vulnabilities.

As always, jellyfin does not have that much relevant contributers, and a lot of work has been done in recent time. It is very easy to lean back and say what they should or should not have been doing.

Breaking Clients would make the project not usable for many ppl or at least decrease the usability.

As i have already said, getting uodatea on those closed eco systems can be a nightmare.
