ive been using kodi (xbmc was better moniker) since google killed sagetv. i recall attempting plex, but it seemed to lack some open/extensibility (its been awhile).

i have a side project i want to make as a modular plugin generating a cable layout with original air orders and networks/channels... kodi seems most optimal, but ill admit its been a long while since i looked at plex.

so why plex over kodi?

Sure, but the thing is Jellyfin and Plex both work pretty close to what I want without having to customize anything. I'm happy for everyone that likes Kodi, it's just not for me. I've used Kodi on and off from back when it only ran on the Xbox as XBMC. I know what it's capable of. I just don't want to put that effort into it.
