Unraid is great. Don’t let the FOSS heads say otherwise.

I paid $100 3 years ago, ONCE. Best purchase I’ve ever made.

I’ve tried the foss alternatives after getting familiar with unraid, and I still prefer unraid.

This is what literally every jellyfin user and forum has told me. So far it’s been completely unfixable.

Plex support actually gives me useful responses.

I run Plex and jellyfin side by side. Plex usually gives me the most hassle free experience so I use that most of the time.

I prefer the flexibility of creating user accounts myself on jellyfin so that’s nice.

But jellyfin after being up for 4~5 days balloons to 6GB of RAM consumption while Plex stays at ~200mb. Really annoying.

WireGuard, helpful for accessing stuff on your internal network that you don’t want to expose while you’re out.
