QBittorrent is better though.

Soon to be "Jellyfin & Get it in"

oouuuu maybe it's time for me to decentralize everything.

what's the difference between jelly and jam?

Jellyfin is a 100% free and open source, but you can only stream stuff you already have downloaded, so you don't get that love tv stuff on Plex

Personally I don't use the love TV stuff, and I prefer jellyfin because it's free and open source with no Plex pass bs

I'm still riding Emby, but it feels like they're also stagnating, with it taking forever(literal years) to implement some seemingly simple features. Too many times have I looked up some desired minor feature just to find out they said on the forums back in 2019 that they're working on it. That pace might be forgivable if they were a non-profit open-source project, but they ditched open-source a while ago and have paying customers. It's getting ridiculous.

Yeah for me at least there's zero reason to use Emby. It's the worst aspects of Jellyfin and Plex put in one. It's less polished and user friendly than Plex while not being open source and quickly developing like Jellyfin.

Because of the layoffs or did I miss something else?

Yeah, just speculation on my part. Layoffs plus all the weird features they've been putting out lately. Better to have an alternative ready in case something happens.

Can someone convince me why jellyfin is better? Keep in mind I’m a lifetime plex pass user. And I have plex stuffed full of plugins like audnexus and YouTube metadata downloader so I can use plex as an audible service and repository for my favourite YouTube series’ or automatically pulling down YouTube podcasts and having all the metadata auto fill.

I also use the watch together feature to watch things with a friend often and an attractive sleek UI matters more than it should.

Do you know if you can run it on a Fire Stick?

I have used the jellyfin app on the fire tv stick, its even on the store and works great!
