Can't speak to whatever else you may have experienced, but subtitles have seen significant improvement over the last year or so.
If I remember with subtitles there wasn't a way to source them in the app or swap to ones that might have different timings unless you downloaded them yourself manually. Did that change or am I remembering wrong?
I don't believe this is an option yet unfortunately. I think jellyfin is great and will always keep using it over plex, but I agree the subtitle management is not great.
There's a plugin that can do that, but it requires a little setup and an external account.

My subtitles are awesome. Except on Roku, the official Jellyfin app is lacking. But Jellyrock is pretty great.
