      I went with Plex for probably ten years after breaking with Emby. I ended things with them because they don’t care about their customers at all. Bugs that break the experience completely that lie untouched/unnoticed/ignored for years, and no replies from the developers. Or even developers that just stop replying to these bugs.

      Switched to Jellyfin this year and it works like a charm. Only thing is it isn’t as good at noticing duplicates in my library, but other than that, works just fine. Definitely above acceptable.

        I do a lot of remote sharing with friends and unfortunately it’s not great for that.

        Also the last time I checked it out the clients kinda sucked. Not even one for Apple TV

            Maybe there was one added since I last checked, or I’m just dumb. Good chance of the latter.

            Edit: oh, 3rd-party clients? I had tried one but they wanted a fucking subscription fee

              Nope. No subscription fee. Just the regular Jellyfin client. I run the server from my PC and watch on the client in my TV. All free.

                Will try again. Though not having stupid simple friend sharing is still a dealbreaker for me
