It’s what made me switch this weekend. I didn’t know I missed the “Episode ends on (time)” functionality until I got it with Jellyfin, Holy shit that’s so nice ❤️

My friend who’s been praising Plex for years and making fun of me for using Jellyfin instead just told me the other day he’s thinking about switching. It’s their new subscription fee that finally did it. xD

I mean i understand praising it, i still primarily use plex despite their Shenanigans and will VPN to bypass the remote streaming charge. I still have jellyfin installed but it has several issues for me still.
I have quite a large library and I still regularly have issues with matching especially on anime. It will either fail to match at all until I do it manually, or match incorrectly and I will have to manually correct it. I still frequently have playback issues for no apparent reason especially on Android where I will hit a file that just refuses to play back for no apparent reason with none of the error logs being particularly helpful on files that play perfectly in Plex with absolutely no issues, I have both friends and family that use my server and the device support is basically everything even remotely capable of media playback for Plex but is unfortunately just not as robust for jellyfin.
I know that in this particular subreddit I’m likely to just get downloaded for saying it but sometimes the open source solution just isn’t as good and this is definitely one of those cases. It’s been getting better has time goes on but it’s not a solid replacement yet for a lot of cases
