MODERATORS
You mean you don't like recommendations by default of the media you downloaded because you know exactly what you want to watch?
I really never understood that.
My assumption is that it's a bridge to some sort of legitimacy like a movie rental deal or something. Like inserting ads into your self hosted media.
That's the thing - we just can't know. Sometimes a feature is just a feature, but with commercial software there's always more risk it's going to change under you for the wrong reasons when they find some way to monetise it.
100%, why I love my open source.
