This makes it out to be so much worse than it actually is.

It's good at what it does - serving media to all your devices. No online accounts, no phoning home, no advertisement, no BS. I've had no trouble with either the web UI or any of the apps available on android/TV. Admittedly I've never used Plex but I can't imagine it doing any of that much better.

It's not hard to miss what you don't know. But take intro skipping. Awesome feature. JF still doesn't have it. It's not necessary, but hard to give up. And frankly you shouldn't have to give it up. The swiftfin client still is missing features. Oauth is still a "won't support" feature. The devs abandoned and locked their subreddit in a fit of pique. There's a litany of reasons the project won't replace plex.
