I MUCH prefer Jellyfin to Plex. Jellyfin seems to have active development whereas Plex is more interested in adding in a ton of "features" (aka garbage) that I never ever wanted and continues to leave YEARS old bugs out in the wild. I think it won't be long until Plex enshittifies itself to death. They clearly have a financial situation that is not aligned with its users.

I think it depends on what client devices you have. Last time I checked, some content (like HDR) won't play on Apple TV via Jellyfin unless you spring for a relatively expensive paid client (like Infuse). The open source client won't work.

Infuse is only $10 per year and that includes on your Apple TV and iPhone. It really is quite slick and looks really good.

Agreed. This is not expensive at all. 100% worth the value which is less than a dollar a month.
