I've feel like I've used Plex forever. I also feel like every couple years I try Jellyfin to see how it's going. Recently I tried it again because of Plex restriction on more than one user.

Well, I just tried it again and it's substantially improved! This time it actually properly detected most of my library!

Also the Android TV app is AWESOME! No more glitches, lagging, and freezing trying to play my stuff like Plex did. It is butter smooth.

Wow! I'm impressed and I just deleted Plex. Good riddance.

Neat, I just figured Roku clients were just going to get just enough attention to work.

I run everything parallel and have the same shares. Unless I set up the video, the wife and kids always go back to Plex.

I get it, But at the same time, Samsung is trying to sell what I'm watching, plex is trying to sell what I'm watching, roku is trying to sell what I'm watching. I just want to watch some damn videos without being someone else's payday.

Amen!

Nope. We have a team dedicated to working on the Roku client. They're constantly working on not only bug fixes, but also improvements and new functionality.
