I've run both and Jellyfin is actually easier to run IMO, since it is in package managers. Also has free android/iphone app. What do you think you have to do in Jellyfin you don't in Plex?

How easy is it to get family and friends to connect to your Jellyfin on like their Roku or Apple TV?

Right now I just have them make a Plex account and they just login. Easy on my part since I don’t have to be tech support.

I send them an email that contains a link to jellyfin.mydomain.tld with their new username and password, plus a few tips for how to get the most out of it (I wrote a template a few years ago).

It's not any more work for me than giving a user library access on Plex, but it does require I have a reverse proxy and a domain.
