Plex is starting to enforce its new rules, which prevent users from remotely accessing a personal media server without a subscription fee.

For remote streaming to, say, your mum’s house? (Or a friend, etc)?
Yes, after I set up the server properly (reverse proxy). With this change the same setup on the server side is necessary for remote streaming with free Plex.
My mum puts in the domain, username and password and starts streaming.
Guess what I didn’t have to setup with Plex or Emby.
That’s because you had somone elses servers doing that part for you.
