Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 7, Documentation: 6, Utility: 5)

Plex Proxy is a Rust-based man-in-the-middle proxy that improves remote Plex streaming over unreliable internet connections like Starlink by prefetching content and being more tolerant of transient network issues. It offers smart caching that anticipates what you'll watch next, making it interesting for Plex users with less-than-perfect remote access.

Target audience: backend devs, devops
