Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn't be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

Same here. When my Internet is out, my household needs to still be able to watch shows from my NAS locally without having to jump through hoops. Plex wouldn't let me just do that anymore.

Moving to Emby has had its own small issues, but with the internet out the family can still just load the TV app and watch a show like normal. They don't need to know how to do any troubleshooting, alternate login options, etc.
