    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.

    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.
