HOME - stop forcing this on us

PLEASE STOP FORCING YOUR HOME SCREEN LANDING ON US.

You wont let us remove it, disable it or set another default PIN INSTEAD. WHY!?$

My default landing should be customized to whatever I decide it to be.

You can simply put a box deep in the advanced settings for us to uncheck to remove home.

WAKE UP and let us customize OUR experience with OUR content on plex OUR WAY.

You have lost touch with us and dropped everything that made plex great in the beginning and turned it into a low budget netflix plutotv hybrid. :nauseated_face: :man_facepalming:

Not sure what your talking about. You can manage what is displayed on the home screen.

Oh really?

Please tell me how can I remove the home screen and have it default to one of my pinned sources instead?

Or how can I have one of my pinned sources library be the home screen with no recommendations, recently viewed or recently added. Just my pinned source library only.
Thanks.

Plex spent the last 5 years going through several attempts of making the Home useful and they found a equal balance with what we have now. Not everyone was satisfied with how the first iteration was. Then people complained that everything was mashed together. Then there was complaints about how everything was separated.

Plex found certain granularity but apparently satisfied enough to cool everyone down. Now you want one specific library loaded on the home page. I truly don’t know how much your one vote will count but I highly doubt this will ever see daylight because the outcry has subsided. People wanted one home page front and center for easy access to recently viewed, recently added and other content from other libraries.

Plex went back and forth and honestly, I wish they don’t touch it for a while. It took wayyyyy too long and there was so much outrage at the time, that Plex dropped all other projects to focus on this issue just to try to please everyone. Now, I just want that freaking home left alone for the time being. There are tons of other stuff they need to concentrate on.

Where did you find these settings in the latest picture. I do not see them when accessing my server thru plex.tv or local ip.

I would like to switch all off, but I don’t get to that screen shown above.

Thanks.

hover your mouse over one of your libraries
you will see Manage Recomendations - click it

Use your mouse to hover over a library and you’ll get a Manage Recommendations drop down arrow and if you click on that, the granular options appear.

While this may not be entirely what you’re asking for, this was the result of a huge upset and months of pitchforks out from users a few years ago. I don’t want to go back to that mess.

Thanks a lot. Desktop PC times are long gone here. Tablets everywhere. No mouse, no hover balloon text. Found it with your help.

All comments about how to configure the Home Screen and to adjust it to your needs… there’s already an existing feature suggestion thread asking for an option to remove/skip the Home Screen for good. I therefore suggest you comment/vote in that thread in order to avoid distracting/dispersing votes (which will only decrease the chances of those suggestions to gain attention).

I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate.
