I know how to turn off the notifications, but Plex should not nag me to rate things I have watched.
I have never seen that but I just used Google to check for those settings in the mobile app. It’s up to every user if they want to get reminded to do things or not. Same for all the other settings, just chose what you prefer. I have them off.
Yep. I know how to turn them off (although for a lot of folks it didnt work), but why, WHY would they send notifications for this?
but why, WHY would they send notifications for this?
Because the option was turned on?
It also doesnt happen when the option was turned on for some people, lol.
But more importantly: why should this be an option at all? Do people actually rate their own movies? And even if they do, do they need a reminder?
Finally, always opt-in. Never opt-out.
I see the disable notification option for “reminder to rate watches items” under the “discover” section on iOS.
I have not seen this option in years.
What’s the most recent movie you watched on plex?
Back to the Future 3 was the most recent! Although it was trying to get me to rate Big Man Japan for some reason…
Please rate Back to the Future 3 in a scale from 1-10.
You joke, but I was just talking about it with some friends. I have a friend that loves 3 and really likes 2. I personally find the first one a great deal of fun, and the next two formulaic and rather dull.
What do you think? On a scale of 1 to 10. Are you willing to take a customer survey? This will only take 20 to 30 days to complete. Press one now.
I never really got into the series. But I do remember liking 3 as a kid. In highschool, I borrowed the DVD’s of this and Robocop from a friend and I thought both were just alright.

Then do it. Give in to the dark side.
Yeah, I am. I have both running.
Thats good. Someone recently recommended “infuse” for ios as an app for jellyfin. The free version does everything you need since some of the paid features are handled by jellyfin on the server side.
If you are not on ios then disregard that comment.
I ended up stopping my use of Plex just for the multiple annoying things that kept adding up for me, it made it feel like a product I was using instead of a product I was hosting. It felt like some settings weren’t sticking and I’d always end up on the recommended tab despite explicitly avoiding it. I am a lifetime pass holder and still host, but have found myself using jellyfin more these days. Apologies for coming into the plex community and shitting on it but this showed up in my all feed.
I think it’s fair to have these kind of discussions. I have the lifetime pass too but it is a much different thing today than it was ten years ago.
I’ve found they’re also not prioritising the right things, like why would I want to integrate live TV into my “media server”? I’d much rather they integrate things such as better av1 support
I like it. If I didn’t get the reminders, I would forget to rate things I’ve watched.
