Lack of feature parity is the number one thing holding so many people back from switching to Jellyfin. Of Plex is going to start deleting beloved features, a lot of minds will be made up very quick.
This is a feature that Jellyfin natively has already. So now Jellyfin exceeds Plex in some areas.
Honestly, the two reasons I've been sticking with Plex is the federated/shared libraries and watch together.
If they're starting to axe those then I see no reason to continue using it.
Jellyfin has had sync play for a long time
Ada is a Jellyfin user? We’re in good hands.
Id love to have the federated libraries in jellyfin. That would be amazing.
I really try to move to Jellyfin, but there's always some papercuts that block me. Tried it last weekend again, and:
I also tried Navidrome for music. Weirdly it had hiccups playing some files, and DSF was again a problem.
I really want to get out from Plex, but I use Plexamp so much and it handles my huge music library really well it's hard to switch :(
All my media is shared from a Raspberry Pi 4 with a HDD attached to it via NFS. Jellyfin runs as a container on a cheap Chinese mini pc I got off AliExpress. I've not had any issues over the network. It even transcodes on a share of the Pi as my SSD that has Jellyfin on is too small for larger movies.
Plexamp right now is the biggest reason I have not even thought of moving to something else. I have yet to see a music player that comes close to the features Plexamp has.
