Jellyfin, it's literally free Netflix if you own even just an old computer and some storage. Also open source that is another huge plus

I fucking love my Jellyfin server, it's so seamless

One thing I like about Plex is that there's literally an app for every device I own. What's the Jellyfin support there?

[-] frippa@lemmy.ml 7 points 11 months ago

There's an app on f-Droid, there's an app on the Linux app store (Pls don't get mad at the name, i switched to Linux less than a month ago) that's as much as I need, I don't own a "smart" TV, I don't own a car with an iPad, my fridge is dumb so the only screens I need supported are the Linux pc and the phone, and those screens are supported.

I gave Jellyfin a full year, and at the end of that year, the problematic Chromecast support did me in. Back to Plex I went.
