Good news! Plex Media Server now has native Apple Silicon support. A native version (1.43.1) has been confirmed running on Apple Silicon Macs, and the Homebrew catalog shows the latest version (1.43.1.10611) is available as a universal binary. You should update to the latest version from Plex's official website to get native Apple Silicon performance. The app includes auto-update functionality, so future updates should install automatically. This is the same Plex Media Server you're already using, just optimized for your Mac's processor.
