My boyfriend set up Jellyfin for us and honestly it’s great once you actually start watching something. But I’m still paying for Netflix.

Not because Netflix has better content, but because it’s just easier. Open TV, app is there, everything works instantly. With Jellyfin we have to open the browser on the TV first (it’s not Android TV), then log in again, then figure out what to watch, download it, wait and only then we can watch it.

I didn’t expect convenience to matter this much, but apparently it does.

For people who fully switched to Jellyfin/Plex - did you eventually make the setup feel seamless enough for everyday use?
