One of several systems for self-hosting video files. I've lost track if Jellyfin is a fork of Plex or what. I personally use Kodi.

I'm using Kodi + Real Debrid for over a year now. Works really great but I have to admit that it's a bit tedious to setup if you want an experience similar to Netflix for example.

Have you tried Stremio + Real Debrid? It's a game changer.

Jellyfin is a fork of Emby. Plex is proprietary software.

The Jellyfin project was started in early December 2018 primarily as a result of Emby's decision to take their next release (4.x) closed-source.

I use Emby and have had no issues.
