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?

    It supports hardware decoding right?

    Can you download episodes and when you watch it it gets replaced by the next one ?

    Is there a YouTube Kids skin for Jellyfin?

      Skins for Jellyfin depend on the client. There are quite a few CSS themes for the web client and Kodi is a high quality multiplatform media player with a ton of skins that works as a Jellyfin client via an addon.

      As for automatic downloading, I don’t think any official Jellyfin clients support that yet, though Findroid for Android (a third-party client) does support downloading and watching downloaded episodes within the app, but I don’t think it has the automatic downloads
