If you use it weekly it shouldn't be free to you, certainly if you use it more frequently than that. Give money to the projects you depend on or they will disappear.

    Supporting software that you use by paying for it?

    Ew.

    I’m a very happy lifetime membership owner and have zero problem with them removing features from the free version. Free doesn’t pay the bills unless you want to become the product.

    You find a place on jellyfin.org where they take donations? I was looking last night and only found a link where you could contribute your time.
