If I had to choose one, it might be Short Term 12. I like some of these more than others, but all mean something to me and there’s a pretty broad spread of genres here.

Plex is still the most feature rich and easiest to set up, both for admins and users.

I do not want to expose Jellyfin ports to the internet, nor teach and troubleshoot an extra service like Tailscale for friends and family. I send a Plex invite, they download the app (available on pretty much every device) and we’re done.

Projects like Kometa and some Tautulli integrations let you customize and organize your Plex media in ways just not possible in Jellyfin yet (to my knowledge). For example, I hate spoilers in TV shows, and I have all episode thumbnails automatically blurred and episode summaries censored. I don’t like how Jellyfin handles collections, while Kometa is simply fantastic for letting me automate collection maintenance for any criteria I can think of.

I am currently running both, mostly to keep an eye on Jellyfin’s progress, but it’s hard to argue that Plex is a more polished and streamlined experience.

I have Plex pass and feel I’ve got more than my money’s worth. I don’t feel like anything has been “rug pulled” from under me and I’ve yet to see any features I paid for get removed. I am not a fan of the recent “trending with friends” fiasco and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Jellyfin more if the features were there, but right now it’s just not there yet.
