My biggest issue with Jellyfin is that remote access requires additional steps (which many of my family would not be comfortable doing on their end) and even if that hurdle didn't exist, it would still be significantly less secure than providing access through Plex.

I never use their remote access methods at all. WireGuard works fine.

Which is totally fine if you're the only user of your server, but for those of us who host their server for their whole family (including less tech minded people), that is very far from an actual option.

I’m not. Everyone I want to let in has their own WireGuard credentials, each one limited what they can reach once connected.

What issues do you have with jellyfin?

[–] muusemuuse@sh.itjust.works -1 points 5 days ago

I have literally never had a problem with jellyfin. It works great on everything. It slices, dices, cures all that ails you.

I'll start using Plex when Jellyfin stops working consistently.

Well the hope is that Jellyfin continues to improve, and that doesn't happen.

Plex appears to be going downhill, not improving
