plex or Jellyfin?

I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?

Jellyfins OTA and DVR are a dumpster fire. So if you want to watch and record OTA TV go with Plex.

I thought they disabled plugins including for IPTV?

If they did good, because they didn't work on any of the three or so versions I tried.

I only gave a half assed attempt. I just use VLC for IPTV and have to accept it won't downscale the bitrate over a mobile connection sadly.
