My good ol 2+ year Plex server host has been banned again. I have given up on this, I do not have access to an obscure server with few customers that will avoid future bans.

What's the platform of choice moving forward? Need wife-approval factor. Emby and Jellyfin? Where can I source servers? Reddit has made these hard to find and I haven't found a good community here.

Just run your own Jellyfin

Agreed, as long as you handle the HTTPS or VPN setup, and set up any automatic media downloading ( jellyseer, sonarr and radarr and jackett) the end product is certifiably wife approved and works nicely out of the box

How do you get it on the tv? Like is there an interface she can use?

Enemy and Jellyfin both have Android TV and Roku apps. I don't have an apple TV, but I imagine apps exist there too.

I have a Chromecast Ultra connected by ethernet to my network. There's an android app with a cast functionality which we both use with our respective accounts. I also hear good things about the Android TV and roku clients (but have neither myself)
