Related pro-tip: if you use Plex and you also think it's enshittifying, switch to Jellyfin. You can run it side by side with Plex and point it at the same library folders.
Beware that Jellyfin is not good with duplicates, if you have a lot of those. You have to rename your files for duplicates to be recognized. Not great if your files come from the... sea.
Radarr and Sonarr automatically renames the files doesn't it? What kind of a setup are you running?
You can also use Filebot to ingest files that have Caribbean sailor names and put the into a Jellyfin-compatible directory structure, renamed correctly.
Sailing 🏴☠️ a private scene tracker and need to seed for a long time. Can't really rename scene releases...

I know about hard links but it's still doing more work than Plex in this regard. Some work vs no work. 🤷♂️ I'm not opposed to work but I'm just saying, Jellyfin is inferior in this single regard.
