Where can I view the show/episode description and metadata in the shared folder? Where are my playlist? Where does it safe my watch progress. How can I filter my collection by genre or other advanced options, like available audio languages? Where does it suggest related show? Where is the API to auto sync my watch history to list sites?
Seriously, if you think a shared folder in the windows explorer can remotely compare to what plex does I have to assume you have never used or even seen the plex interface before.
Literally all that (except getting recommendations) is handled by the media viewer you use to actually watch the videos. I recommend VLC. You seriously put up with ads just for all that basic as fuck shit?
I would (and did) use plex even for purely local playback, because of dozens of other of features it offers. It’s a full fledged media library, not just a folder and player.
You are the one that is clueless and you’re making a fool out of yourself, badly.

As we say in Germany: “Wenn man keine Ahnung hat, einfach mal die Fresse halten”.
Clearly you have no clue how to do simple networking tasks if you believe Plex to be doing something special, so maybe take your own advice.
