Anyone that has tried the new version, does plex still make it really difficult to view your library by folder/file rather than by meta data?

I use jellyfin because I can get a folder view.

I don't think it ever did?

Been using Plex 5 years now and all I had to do was click the view drop-down and select "folder view" instead of "collection view" and boom, done

I've just tried it and it does have a folder view for each library.

Yeah I can't see a file / folder view on the new client. Not that I saw one on the old android client either.

Must admit the new app is more responsive than the old version on my P7P however having "new on XYZ" service that I don't have is a shit addition to the new client.
