That’s pretty bad, but I’m not that surprised.

I don’t know what the Apple TV app is like, but I would love if the Android and Roku TV apps were the same as the web and mobile application.

At this point I believe the server is superior to Plex, at least on my experience. Much snappier and streams flawlessly

You can enable remote access through firewall rules, port fwding etc but I haven’t done that yet. There’s a service called tailscale that allows remote access to almost any app externally, works really well. Only drawback is that if you’re on mobile, the tailscale app needs to be running for access to work

I also paid for a lifetime pass and still switched to Jellyfin last year. I find it’s quite a bit better than Plex. The UI leaves a bit to be desired, but the performance for me is way better.

I’d suggest giving it a try
