I remember being excited when it first came out, but then as we know capitalism happened and ruined it. Im all jellyfin now. But was plex originally starting out to be a good thing or was it just to trick us into being locked into their service after we all got on it?

    I mean, they built a whole NFT marketplace into it under Gaben.

    You could argue that the next guy (if any) would be worse at making money from Steam than he is, I suppose.

    Although admittedly their NFT marketplace went the same way all others did. I remember at the time people were shilling that stuff my go-to response to tell them why it’d fail was that Steam tried it and it all trended to zero.

      Yeah that was definitely a fad. I still dont mind trading and buying cs skins once in a while but it is in no way a real money maker.
