So, announced today, we released a new community feature - Lists. (You can read the full announcement post here .) Figured I’d start a thread here, start seeing how y’all might use it, what you think about it, any questions you have, or just random comments about it! While we’ve played with the feat…

Oh wow, another feature literally nobody asked for. If only Plex had a place where people could request features and those would get added instead of throwing random crap at the wall… oh… wait… :roll_eyes:

[image] Introducing Lists on Plex Share list: Share your list with others via all normal sharing channels (social media, text, email, etc) Ok… I see it now. I create list. I share list via FB or IG. Plex receives more traffic, even if users aren’t tied to a server. Got it.

Start a timer for when this feature is abandoned.

[image] BanzaiInstitute: fragmentation issue I literally warned everyone in this forum that by having the apps separate, EXACTLY what Apple does, that it puts each of the apps on the back burner and makes Plex treat every singular app as a forgotten middle child when they don’t feel like work…

I think the idea isn’t too bad BUT it is the wrong time for this. The Apple TV app is still collecting dust and haven’t been updated for over a year! The new Apple TV app is still in beta The new Plex app for iOS is battery hungry and still buggy The Plex for Mac still has the old Interface Did…

Dont send an email out announcing a new feature thats not bloody available on all your apps. Its super annoying.
