I can find several old posts ( up to around 2021 stating that Plex support sucks in Google Nest, and people have thrown out their entire Google Nest setup and switched to Amazon, because Google Nest simply doesn't work with Plex. Could anyone please update me on the current state of integration, as I'm considering investing in a Google Nest setu, that I'd mostly use for streaming Videos to my tv and music to the Nest speakers from my Plex server?

Hi @SimonKepp,
Thank you for posting in the community. I understand you've found several posts mentioning the integration of Plex with Google Nest devices, and you're considering investing in a Google Nest setup for this. I'm happy to help.
While devices like Chromecast Audio support casting audio to many apps, including Plex, casting video is not an officially supported option for devices like Chromecast (2nd gen, 3rd gen, and Ultra), Chromecast with Google TV, and Google TV streamer (4K). I understand this feature may be useful, considering your needs and the needs of all Nest users. We're always looking for ways to improve, and we appreciate your feedback.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Regards,
Anders
