Also a lifetime Plex holder. Plex wouldn’t let me watch my local content without authenticating the other day… But my internet went out and I couldn’t. Decided I’d swap to Jellyfin the first chance I could (couldn’t that day because no internet)… So that’s what I did today. It was painless and I’m never going back to Plex.
Disclaimer, I don’t need access outside of my house so I didn’t set any of the remote stuff up.
Yeah, if you’re 100% local, that’s basically the ideal use case for Jellyfin. Plex really shines when it comes to remote access. But if you never use that, then there’s very little reason to use it over Jellyfin.
