Not OP, but jellyfin gives you a web interface and multiple user access kinda like Netflix profiles.

Very helpful especially in a family where you might want to separate out libraries a bit.

Jellyfin can help with metadata and keeping track of progress for tv shows etc.

The main advantage of Jellyfin is that it can transcode on-the-fly, which is important if you want to share with friends and family that have slower or metered internet.
But the unfortunate flipside is it seems like the best clients (so far) do not support transcoding very well, they want to direct stream.
