Crowdsec included.

• 1 vCPU (Xeon Gold)
• 1 GB memory
• 10 GB NVME storage
• 2 TB bandwidth (should be enough for me)

In the Plex Android app, when the player loads after you click play, it takes about 8–10 seconds to start playing.

Possible issues I have ruled out:

• Transcoding (it's direct playing)
• Network speed limitations
• Going through relay
• Subtitles

If I play it on my mobile browser on app.plex.tv, it immediately starts playing, so I'm thinking this is a client-specific problem.

Another reason this might be the case is that this issue sometimes goes away with updates, only for it to come back with newer updates. Is anyone experiencing this issue currently? I'm on the latest Plex Android version.
