  Just run Jellyfin along side Plex and see.

  I have the same question, mainly because it seems like the Plex interface is trying too hard to show stuff that’s not on my local server.

    You can disable that, but yeah it’s annoying that it’s turned on by default. The Discover is occasionally useful, but I honestly use Overseerr for discoverability more than I use Plex’s built-in search.

  I left Plex about two years ago and haven’t looked back since. Install Jellyfin and see if you like it .

  No. Jellyfin is lacking

    Lacking a centralised server that even self-hosted instances must use to validate admins and will render your instance inaccessible if Plex’s server goes down again?

    I’m fine with that.

    Jellyfin server isn’t lacking, but the weak point is definitely client software, especially on iOS. Unfortunately they just don’t have the same kind of resources Plex do in that regard.

    I run Plex and Jellyfin, with watched status between the two synchronised with jellyplex-watched.

      Errrm infuse… hands down awesome on iOS macOS and tvOS.

        Unless I’m missing something, you can’t have multiple user profiles.

        I use Infuse on my Apple TV with Plex Media Server as the backend.

  The layout of Plex definitely fits my brain waaaaay better with respect to navigation. But I hardly use it because I keep running into playback stuttering which doesn’t happen on Infuse, which I point at Jellyfin in my Synology. Will give this version another try.

    I was getting stuttering on my server the other day but i think it was caused by mismatched client/server versions. When i upgraded the server to the latest release it went away

      Interesting. I will take a look and see if that fixes it. Thanks for the tip!
