Last time I tried, there was no prebuilt client for Jellyfin on my Samsung TV. I had to put the TV in dev mode, cross compile and install their experimental code, and it honestly wasn’t that good a client.
I don’t use the paid features of Plex so I’m just holding my nose and keeping it until the alternatives become viable.
I just have no reason to migrate to Jellyfin (or indeed anything else). I already have a lifetime PlexPass. Plex does everything I need, and it does it very well. As a music server in particular, it's superb and the Plexamp client is a joy.
