Jellyfin is easy to prove you are the owner off. While Plex has issues with that on systems like TrueNas when you don't have full access to the server
Why are you having to prove you're the owner of it exactly? What you're describing is "user error".
The whole claim token thing and no it was a know issue
Was? So it’s not now?
Again, if you installed Plex in a setup that it is known to have issues with, that’s a user error.
No lol, that's just a pourly designed system.
Also Plex worked with IX systems to get Plex on Truenas
