I have setup Jellyfin as a docker container and will bind-volume the same locations as Plex, but I was interested in anyone’s perspective having made the switch in the last year or so.

What are some things you miss, what are issues/benefits you hadn’t expected?

      I tried Symfonium and paid for it, but the Google Play unlock took my money and didn’t unlock it, I emailed the developer and had such a bad reaction I had to report him to Google who said they were considering taking down his account. I have the screenshots of I choose to make a post in the future. But I won’t be using Symfonium in the future.

      I have started using AudioBookShelf for audiobooks & podcasts and it’s been really good.

      I like jellyfin on desktop, but the TV app isn’t great, that being said the streaming is much better than Plex but I didn’t try transcode.

      I avoid anime specifically because of the dropped plugin support so Jellyfin might need to come in just for that.

      Komga is what I use for Comics.

    I’m still dual-wielding Plex and Jellyfin. Plex for sharing, Jellyfin mostly for me. What I miss: Skip intro, skip outtro, PMM, Tautulli, Overseer (looks like Jellyseer can cover it, but while I wait for others I might as well wait for the main repo to support Jellyfin), the interface is pretty old-school but their new VueJS (IIRC) interface looks like it’ll solve that issue. Nowits’s just about waiting for it to become the primary interface in apps.

    Benefit: No more defaulting to 720p 3mbps! That shit is outdated as fuck in 2023…

      I’m also dual wielding. I think the only thing really keeping me on plex is there doesn’t seem to be a straight forward way to set up a tv tuner.
