I want to unlock the ability to view content on my mobile device. I can do that with a one-time purchase (payed with google opinion rewards) or with a subscription. I want to unlock the ability for my entire family though, across multiple devices. Do I have to pay the “one-time payment” for every device? If so, the plex subscription might be worth it. Is there any other major benefit to having a plex subscription?

    Just use Cloudflared then, no need to port forward. Or use a VPN with port forwarding and a dynamic dns

      Note that Plex is against Cloudflare’s ToS. No guarantee they will terminate your account, but it’s a risk.

      Could also consider Tailscale.
