I have the apk, I had it before my previous reply. It won’t let me sign in because it requires Google Play Services. I’ve tried with multiple internet connections and using different DNS settings. My Plex account works fine on the website.
Even if I could sign in, I have my doubts whether it would let me restore the purchase, again because I do not have Google Play Services.
The app also includes at least 6 trackers, including 2 from Facebook:
Like I say, you’re probably right about the Plex app still having the functionality. My mistake. I still prefer not to use Plex services for a number of reasons.
In any case, you’ve behaved like a complete asshat the entire time I’ve been speaking with you, so this will be my last reply.
funny that i’ve got a degoogled shield running the apk locally without any issue but go off please about how im the asshat while you just keep making up shit to trash a product you don’t use or know about.
You think I’m making up the trackers? I’ve verified this using 3 different tools.
De-googled =/= does not have any Google Play Services. Apparently you’ve still got some remnants leftover. I prefer never having it installed to begin with.
I used the service before, I don’t anymore. I’ve not made anything up, I was mistaken about something, then as soon as you brought up the ability to restore the purchase I went and checked - only to find bigger issues (trackers and an inability to sign in).
I’ve engaged in good faith. You’ve done nothing but act like an asshat, from the moment you jumped into this thread.
I thought you were done engaging, how have I been an ass? I’ve merely corrected the bullshit you keep making up based on an arbitrary hatred of a media player lol.
I can assure you my shield is not phoning home to any google services. It barely accesses anything on the web, and has a very small whitelist of accessible domains. But whatever man, I thought you were done with this conversation. I’m sure there’s another new thread you can spread fearmongering crap about Plex in.
You didn’t provide a correction until your 6th comment. You said a lot of bullshit before then. I made one mistake, after initially focusing on the merits of open source communities vs closed source businesses.
I haven’t spread fear, I made a mistake, which I’ve owned up to. 4 times now. Yet, you continue to be an asshat, with each and every comment. At this point I’m just curious to see how long you keep that up.
What do you want me to say about trackers? What the hell?
This discussion has been about whether or not Plex requires an internet connection and/or google sign in to work. It doesn’t, and that’s obvious now.
I guess you’re butthurt and bored so you gotta keep talking about other shit? I don’t give a fuck about trackers because I run Plex locally and walled off from 99%+ of the internet. It doesn’t affect me. Seems like it really affects you for some reason though.
Other people can do whatever the fuck they want, chief. If they want to expose themselves to tracking online either by choice or by ignorance, that’s their perogative.
You’re welcome to keep trying to start an argument but the clear reality is that you got proven wrong about google and then again about “deprecated” apps and now you’re feisty and looking to prove you’re not a tiny-dick manbaby by bringing up irrelevant points to get some kinda of “gotcha” sucker punch in before you finally stop engaging like you said you were doing 3 replies ago.
Before you jumped into this conversation, it was about Plex vs Jellyfin, about open source vs closed source, and about what it takes to get open source up to the same level.
You proved me wrong about one small point. It took you 6 comments to actually deliver that. I straight away verified that, owned up, and reframed my argument in line with the facts.
I understand it might be hard to keep track, you spew a lot of bullshit. I guess that’s why you and your various alts have been banned all across the major lemmy instances. Lol, it’s pretty funny that it seems like even hexbear were justified in banning you.
Lmfao me calling out your bad behaviour is not an insult, nor is it in any way bad behaviour itself. Calling out bad behaviour is not an excuse for you to turn around and cry that you’re a victim.
You have behaved like an asshat for however many and every single comment you’ve delivered to me.

Still no comment about the trackers, I see.

Good luck with whatever it is you’re looking for.

I see you’ve resorted to straight up insults and making up things to attack my character. Sorry the truth hurt your ego kiddo.
Lmfao me calling out your bad behaviour is not an insult, nor is it in any way bad behaviour itself. Calling out bad behaviour is not an excuse for you to turn around and cry that you’re a victim.

I’m not hurt, I’m entertained.
