Plex update raises concerns over potential sharing of porn viewing habits | Be careful what you watch::undefined
Bought a lifetime pass from Plex, probably going to switch to jellyfin now
That’s a pretty misguided decision, but who is hosting their own porn?
monke see video, monke put in library
P0rnHub
Yet another reason to be thankful for Jellyfin.
a bit buggy, but i have full control.
The view-state sync feature and all the social stuff is def opt-in though. Of course they made it super easy to do the opt-in, they want to push that feature, but I remember I did have to actively choose both of those things after the update.
Obviously I don’t really want my “friends” getting weekly emails about what I’m watching, but I don’t know — If I were self-hosting my own porn, maybe I’d take 5 extra seconds to read the screen that says stuff about sharing activity.
Except if you read it the Discover Together feature is opt-out
I did read it - what I meant is that I think the author of the article was mistaken.
I’m just now getting acquainted with Plex myself. I have no desire to open it up to beyond my local network nor other users and I’m guessing that’s a good decision based on these kind of feature rollouts I’m hearing about.
That’s fucking hilarious.
What’s the identifier referenced in the IMDB database? Some kind of unique content id?
Exactly. IMDB assigns an identifier to each piece of content, and Plex (or Jellyfin/Emby/etc) use that to pull metadata.
