Okay so they uninstall WhatsApp? What operating systems are they using and what countries are the manufacturers for those based in?

Others have pointed to the very slow development pace. I'll point out something else. When I was first starting out with desktop, Linux enlightenment 16 was one of the desktop options but apart from looking very 'different' to KDE or Gnome, it was damn difficult to get it to look anything other than default. Other desktop managers came on in leaps and bounds but enlightenment just stayed where it was and from what I can tell still is where it was. Meantime, kde and gnome have had multiple major versions and forks. These days I use either xfce or cinnamon, depending on whether hardware acceleration is available. Fundamentally I want my desktop environment to be a launcher for my applications and a way to manage my peripherals and UI preferences. I don't want to be looking at it or dealing with it or spending time thinking about it. I suspect that enough other people feel the same way
I think they might be trying for more than just one up
Beyond what other people have said here, typewriters are very physical machines and the parts wear uniquely at an individual level. Used to be a favourite of crime writers

Thank you
Thanks, further information could be interesting. Do you know if it requests connectivity on every startup?
My reason for stipulating that is that lot of people saying it do so either from ignorance (they simply don't believe/understand that you might not be able to opt out) or on the basis of outdated information, e.g. "I bought my TV ten years ago and never had to do this". Your experience being in the recent past I guess I could try this as a sale stipulation point, thanks.
This is simply a rehash/summary of an original article on 404media. Beyond that, you would have to be living under a rock to think that Plex was interested in what their users actually wanted. I ran a Plex server for years until I got fed up with trying to turn off some new self serving misfeature with every new update. It's been clear for years that offering a self hosting media server solution is simply a bridgehead for Plex to seek every more revenue opportunities, even for paying ~~victims~~ customers. I moved to and recommend Jellyfin- comparable user experience (minus the crap), use the same library, apps for all your devices, open source and completely self contained.
So this is an advert?
