Plex user for over a decade and my only gripe is lack of accounts when internet goes out. When I'm self hosting, I kind of consider it a baseline for something like authentication to a local self hosted server to work without an internet connection.
Also the "recommended" bullshit. What the fuck. I know hat I'm hosting. I know what I download. Why does plex feel the need to force this as the default landing page? Honestly I with jellyfin was a bit more mature cause I'd use that instead.

Out of curiosity, what features are you missing from #jellyfin?
Doesn't feel as polished, the music tagging was much worse, and the UI overall was not as good, as much as I hate the"recommend" section of plex.
Also I think there was something else. At the time I was running plex in freebsd and fin was only on Linux.
