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?

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.
Each and every one reminds me to use Jellyfin instead.
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
