I switched to Jellyfin and then to Kodi. Jellyfin was nice but I wanted Kodi's PVR, Youtube, Video Games, etc. It's been a project to setup everything but it's been pretty awesome.

I spent alot of time messing with the flatpak and apt versions before compiling from source. I recommend source because you get the lastest version and it's easier to install patches, etc.

Plex did an update that took the perfectly good UI and fucked it hard, removed features, and generally is shit

I was in a previous update wave, and it made me switch to Jellyfin too. I cast from my phone to my TV, and they did something that made subtitles basically impossible to load via Chromecast. Even trying to automatically burn in subtitles didn't work for this mode.

Also, while a "minor" nitpick, Chromecast used to show random movie/TV show posters when you connected and also show the media details when you selected something, now it just shows a big PLEX logo all the time unless playing something.

Plex amp is still better than finamp for now. But it's catching up that's for sure.

Crap, I still haven't logged ba k in since they asked me to log out because of the security compromise. I'm gonna have to lose a day and figure out this whole jellyfin thing I guess.

For what it's worth jellyfin is really not that hard to set up

Credit where due, how they handled the breach was appropriate.

Probably like 2–3 years ago I switched from Plex to Emby because the Plex app on my TV was becoming bloated and slow.

Even back then my TV was hitting 5 years old and still working great. Why the hell should I be forced to scrap a perfectly good television just because some corpo wants to ship overly bloated apps with too many animations?
