Are there any other anime platforms? Some of the free streaming services have older anime which I love but I was looking to get a pure anime service.

Nyaa.si and plex. Otherwise crunchy roll is under hbomax and funimation has a lot of content under Hulu . However paying for either is going directly into “western” anime using their god awful art style. I have an old laptop I use as a plex server and get regular updated torrents on Nyaa faster than either streamer. Also found Monster on Nyaa which is probably the most underrated anime in existence
Use Emby or Jellyfin, not Plex. Plex is pushing too hard into ad-based content, and also relies more heavily on internet access. Emby and Jellyfin can exist entirely on your LAN with local accounts if you want, and have no need to phone home.
Seconding this. Jellyfin is harder to set up, but worth the investment of learning to avoid Plex pushing it's ecosystem on you, and having greater control over the behaviour of servers that you own and should have the right to do whatever you want with.
