Yeah, I get where you are coming from. Funnily enough my wife said "Plex has broken again" the other day. I put the date of installation on my Plex installs, and this one was Nov17! So that's been left alone for quite some time. Even she was surprised when I confirmed it had been running for over 2 years with no real interruption.
Just ported mine into a Docker container hence the recent "new" breakage.
