I like Jellyfin but I do not like the way it shitted up my media directories. I have them meticulously sorted. I don’t want images and database shit in them. I much prefer how Plex keeps its database and metadata separated and in its own directory. I would otherwise love to switch.
You should use jellyfin in docker and mount your media files without write permissions. It’s exactly what I do partially for this but more to ease maintenance and reproducing my server.
