[NTARelix]

Over the last decade or so I've switched between Kodi (even back when it was XBMC on a literal Xbox [the original]), Plex, Emby, and Jellyfin; currently settled on Jellyfin for maybe a year and a half. I've also had a great experience with Jellyfin and love that it doesn't hide features behind a paywall. I agree that it has caught up with the competitors in terms of necessary features, but it occasionally feels a little buggy or in need of some UX polish. Perhaps one of my free weekends I'll see if I can contribute.

One of the primary features I appreciate that the others have behind a paywall is the ability to download content for offline use. 1 less reason to open up my network's SSH port to the world. The feature is great for trips where connectivity is limited, or just at a friend's house with terribly unreliable wifi.

I run Jellyfin on an Athlon II X4 (12 or 13 years old) with several other self-hosted services. Transcoding anything above 720p causes the entire system to come to a screeching halt, so I've pre-transcoded all of my content with handbrake to allow direct-play 4k content on all my home devices (Firefox, Shield TV, Chromecast, Android client, desktop client).
