Has Jellyfin caught up to Plex yet?
I tried it a couple of years ago, and it was miles off.

One important thing Jellyfin won't do is deciding to block something on its own.

To actually answer your question without snark, it’s still miles behind. I give the competition a shot once every year or two to see what’s up. It’s never even close for someone that prioritises the things that I prioritise. Every Plex competitor I’ve used makes me feel like I’m using a Linux media player in 2008. Some people get off to that. I don’t.

For some reason the best clients are on Apple devices only, that Infuse and Swiftfin. mpv shim is ok too. That’s my only gripe since I barely touch the actual Jellyfin server interface, it just works. If I had Plex I would also use Infuse too so there’s really no difference except that one is open source, doesn’t phone home, and doesn’t require a monthly subscription.
