    I’ve been using emby. Which seems ok, but a little buggy sometimes like with handling video files it can’t play.

    I’ve been thinking of switching to jellyfin for some time now. Should I expect the experience to be better?

      I’ve been using it for a couple months now on a NixOS setup, I had issues before I split my media collection so shows and movies are in different collections. Now that I’ve done that, I haven’t had any noteworthy bugs. There are some missing features on certain platforms, namely the current roku app doesn’t support multi audio movies and shows and will only use the primary audio track. Hopefully that’s resolved with this update.

      I have been having a blast with Jellyfin. I run it as a docker container on an old computer. I went from Plex to Jellyfin, and I think it is comparable.
