Do you ever need to access your library remotely or from iOS devices?

That's the one killer app for Plex for me. I can get to my library when I'm on the road (music more than movies or TV).

Does Jellyfin do anything like this? Any other caveats if you've used both?

I'm using a seedbox and I can access it from anywhere, just fine. I'll be honest, I'm not sure about the implementation details, but I'm pretty sure it's done via a reverse proxy like so: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/networking/caddy/

Thanks for sharing! I'm reading the docs but was curious to also hear some first-hand experiences..
