I would like to send individual and global messages to the managed users on my Plex Server. Similar to how I can post a message/notification when I terminate a manage user’s active stream. I would like to send a message without having to terminate their active stream. Examples for why this is useful:

1. Notification that the server will be down for maintenance.
2. Notifications to users when large volumes of content like TV Show seasons are being rotated out for new content.
3. Notifications that specific content requests are available on plex.

suggest voting on the existing request rather than making a new one. no need to split votes. If you really think this is different then message me (click on my username) and I will reopen this

Information on planned maintenance (running every 20min or so) Restart information (one time message) and so on. This would be nice to have when you have a shared server. Vote on the poll, and maybe give a comment in suggestions to make this feature request better. Best regards Sleepwalker
