I’ve had no trouble setting up jellyfin on Roku, Google/Android, and FireTV. It seems AppleTV is the only major one lacking support right now, and that will hopefully be addressed soon.
I tried out Plex (and Emby) before Jellyfin and was annoyed how much functionality was locked behind a paywall even though I was hosting the content myself. Jellyfin is completely free and lets me add as many users on as many devices as I damn well please.

Plex is still the better platform. Jellyfish lacks so much features and isn’t supported on most native TV OS.

LG and Samsung TV doesn’t support them. Quite frankly, the two most popular brands of TVs

Dear lord! Don’t use the system in a smart tv for anything!

Why the hell would I want to go though an unnecessary 3ed party step.
