I have setup Jellyfin as a docker container and will bind-volume the same locations as Plex, but I was interested in anyone’s perspective having made the switch in the last year or so.

What are some things you miss, what are issues/benefits you hadn’t expected?

    When I started self hosting, I used plex because it was so widely used. But I just did not like the initial experince. Felt like using a corporate app. Jellyfin is so much more awesome and customizable. Never needed anything else

      Does Jellyfin have anything like Prologue on iOS for audiobooks?

      Audiobooks make up a huge part of our media library and letting friends listen to our books is a huge part of why we use Plex.

        Never owned an ios device so not sure what prologue is…a quick search tells me its an client? If so I would recommened using Audiobookshelf. Its cross platform, has metadata support and just works.
