Glad to have you back, congrats on the twins. Love the app, it's multi instance support is my favorite.

And 7 years after the fact, how is your one time $40 purchase still paying to keep the servers running?

The company as a whole is profitable, and have been for at least the last few years. I'm on mobile so I'm not able to read their annual investor reports, but do they actually mention overwatch being a loss for the company on a premium model, or are you assuming that?

I switched a while back, I think so. Some premium features of plex are available free (like downloading media). It's also less bloated. Personally I hated plex trying to shove it's live tv packages or whatever at me. But honestly, if you're happy with plex, I'd stick with it. They're pretty similar.

Contemporary capitalist societies developed in the West from 1950 to the present and this type of system continues to expand throughout different regions of the world—relevant examples started in the United States after the 1950s

This Wikipedia article says that the US is a capitalist system.

Lobbying, donor interest protection, cronyism, rise of oligarchy

Where are these things listed in the article as being incompatible with capitalism, and their presence meaning it's some other system?

What are you defining capitalism as, and what word would you use to describe our current system?
