Yeah that’s definitely true. I gladly pay for Emby and thing it’s worth every penny for how I use it. Jellyfin has got to be the best free+open one for sure.

It is, but also incredibly quick, easy to use etc.

Everything Plex used to be in the good old days imo!

Not forgetting Emby allows either a local or a federated account!

Why does nobody ever mention Emby? To me, it’s everything Plex used to be before it got enshittified!

For those who want something like Plex used to be (self hosted, simple, fast, beautiful, no bullshit spam), definitely check out Emby. I’ve been using it for years and it’s fantastic!
