If you haven’t seen it yet, we recently made the announcement that starting July 1, 2026, the price of “Jellyfin Premium+ One Super Unlimited (with Ads)” will increase to $0.00 USD*. There has been a lot of enthusiasm regarding charge backs, and we’re simply blown away by the community’s response.
As we’ve had a high volume of inquiries, I’d ask if you could please wait until I’m off the support email shift to reach out about this issue. I’ve attached our schedule so you’ll know when it is safe to reach out.
Thanks, and happy streaming!
*Example price in USD. Exact pricing in other currencies may vary.
Really spammy today with all the Jellyfin glow up and Plex bashing. Plex works great, if you didn’t get a Plex Pass over a decade ago for $20 that’s your loss. Organisations can’t offer great services for free. Eventually Jellyfin will have to start charging, and eventually they will “suck” as well. You young people haven’t been on this rollercoaster long enough to see history repeat itself again and again and again. So have fun with your Jellyfin
You’re conveniently ignoring the part where Plex requires you to have an account on their server and has had a recent data breach. JF has exactly zero risk of that.
Oh wow, look at you!
Not sure if serious, but you’re aware jellyfin is FOSS and selfhosted, right?
Eventually they will add features or have to add functionality that incurs licensing costs that will have to be passed on to users in exactly the same way as Plex found
Why? Why exactly would they have to add something that requires licensing? And if they do, why would the community not simply fork it to remove it?
Money?
