Almost your entire community was appalled and completely floored when you said that only 2% use plugins! This was one of the best features of Plex it allowed users to customize the experience more to their liking. Honestly removing such a great feature is probably one of the worst things that your development team could have done. You’re focusing on adding more features yet any feature you’ve added recently could have easily been added with a plug-in and honestly I’m not trying to be rude when I say this but features added through plugins typically works better than anything y’all have added. Removing plug-in support was like a slap in the face to a vast majority of your loyal fans. I understand it’s not something y’all like but it’s something a crap ton of your customers and fans like. So I’m going to make the suggestion that you don’t have to add plugins back to the main download however you should offer a optional version that has full support for plugins.
