Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

    As a Jellyfin user that has lurked in past “Plex did bad thing X” threads and someone suggested jellyfin.

    The usual reasons are

    • Remote login (through their relay)
    • Which also plays into remote streaming
    • Plex Amp (their music player) is supposedly the absolute best of anything
    • Very easy to sign up (both the admin and family and friends

    At least that’s what I remember at the top of my hat.

      Just a slight clarification that their relay server is a fallback for when your server is inaccessible and still allows you to playback media at 1 or 2Mbps. Remote logins are handled by their authentication server which is separate, so that bulletpoint should be broken out into two separate items.
