My problem with it, it’s like WinRAR trial. I know I will never subscribe. Developers know I will never subscribe. They lost me as a potential customer when they refused to revise their pricing model. I switched to Jellyfin and will not go back to Emby. Guess a lot of people did the same, so I can say it’s their own fault.

Emby subscription costs a lot even if you just want to use it on a home server. It can work without subscription but will display a warning before playback. Jellyfin is free.

It actually seems more like a windows 10 compatibility dilemma for developers. You can support older systems but it would require some effort. The problem is not the absence of some specific certificates, but the absence of newer ciphers altogether.

This does give security but also removes backwards compatibility with some clients that might be important for some websites.

Judging by the size, just another electron app.

Yes, that’s correct.

It’s almost 20 mb.

Steam is using CEF v85 (not Electron but still). Should have gone “please be aware to not visit even slightly shady websites until we update it” but instead went “oh you must like security, so we announce that we will drop Windows 7/8 support in half a year (because CEF Microsoft doesn’t support it anymore) so you could play your games more securely”.

It doesn’t seem like the problem in question is yours to begin with though. Maybe the train will get stopped or people will get released.
