Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

    That’s not a sunk cost fallacy at all. I’m not playing catch up, I’m already ahead.

    I am thinking about it logically. Plex is the superior experience, and considering I’ve already gotten my money’s worth out of it, they are both free. So why would I use the service that works less well for my use case?

    If the user experience continues to degrade, when it finally gets to jellyfin level, I’ll switch.

    Perfectly logical, no fallacies here.

      The part I quoted is the fallacy. You wrote you will stop using it when it is unusable, not when it is inferior to Jellyfin. Maybe you were thinking something different, but we can’t read your mind. We can only read what you wrote and what you wrote is a sunk cost fallacy.
