My apologies for not coming back and reading all the comments left after mine to find that OP responded to a comment with that info. I stand by my original comment. His watchers should be notified. How do you or OP know that those watchers don’t steam content from other servers that don’t have a Plex Pass? Or did I miss that info buried in a response to a response too? 🙄

I love Plex and will continue using it. I bought a lifetime Plex Pass years ago for and have no regrets. My Plex Pass means none of my watchers have to worry about paying anything.

I know, right. It’s crazy to me that people need to actually read the spine of a book they own in order to know what it is. Like, don’t you know exactly what it looks like? It’s your book. In a personal library, it makes sense to group books by how similar they look.

Put yourself in her shoes. If she derives joy from a colorful sorting of the books, it’s likely any other sorting would cause some annoyance/anguish (however minor). She would feel this way each time she laid eyes on the bookshelf.

On the other hand, a colorful sorting would only negatively affect you when you are actively looking for a book. I’m guessing that’s far less often than she merely looks at the bookshelf.

A compromise could be that she sorts the books by color and then by authors name. Not the most efficient sorting method for finding books, but would save a considerable amount of time compared to no author name sorting at all.

Edit: alternatively, a quick Google image search of the book name would tell you all you need to know to quickly find it in a colorful sorting.

I completely understand how you feel. My only advice is be happy with movement that you help start. At the end of the day, no one cares who “helped start it”, but you know what’s up. Let your heart be filled and your mind remain alert to the fuckery around us everyday. Cheers hero ;)
