The identity service is not self hosted then. But the rest of Plex literally is. You can self host Gitea and use a third party service like openID for authentication too if you want to. Just because you self host some things doesn’t mean you HAVE to self host EVERYTHING
You can self-host Tailscale and Zerotier.
Also Plex is a staple of the self hosted community (though I prefer Jellyfin.) I’m wondering if they’ve confused self hosting and FOSS somehow
Plex requires a third party account, therefore not selfhosted.
