Setting up jellyfin+plex (some devices support one but not the other) and most of the arr suite (radarr, sonarr, prowlarr, tunarr) has really been the best choice I've made this year. I have every TV show or movie I ever want to watch, all my favorites, all the classics. And all in one place. And I made sure to keep it local-first so I still have access at home if we lose internet. Started sharing with family and friends and I get a few requests a week to add content, so its being used.

Just removing the "what streaming service is this show on that im watching?" has been a nice improvement.

I'm going to "third" this advice (though not the Plex part). Jellyfin is fantastic. Yes, you have to be careful which devices you use it on, because the client app isn't available for all smart TVs, but you can get around that by just buying a GoogleTV stick (like the $30 one from Onn) and plugging that into your TV; then you can install the JF app on it through the Play store (or even sideload it if you really want). I did this for my wife's parents, and it works great, and my own parents' Roku TV has the JF app in its store already.
