If there's any decent alternative to Google Cast, I'd love to know because I've never found one. You can use Kodi to receive links to Youtube videos and play them, and spotify hast their own built-in casting, but for everything else I've got nothing.
I'm currently working hard on something to fill this void! I've made HomeHook v2 as a web app and HomeCast as an mpv interface installed on my HTPC and some Pis I have around the house!
I still need to document the installation procedure but if you're interested in playing stuff from Jellyfin and YouTube, feel free to send me a message and I'll see if I can help out!
