After 14 years with Plex, I finally moved my video library to Jellyfin. Why rising costs, feature restrictions and digital ownership pushed me towards FOSS.
I found it annoying at first when I started because I didnt know about any management tools. I was updating the firewall rules everywhere myself to allow each remote IP at the router and machine level lol
To be fair Plex also requires open ports (or worse upnp) to remotly stream at full quality, without transcoding.

Its just a pain in the ass to manage at home and easy to leave your ass open for attacks.
