Jellyfin balloons to 6gb ram usage after a week while plex stays at 400mb.
The interface of jellyfin is way less polished and the actual video player UI has a bunch of bad decisions that push more technical babble to the end user that confuses more than helps

Literally the only upside for jellyfin is admin created accounts not requiring the end user to sign up themselves.
