I’ve got Jellyfin up and running right now on a DS620Slim NAS and it’s running pretty good so far. I’ve seen a lot of people say they prefer Plex over Jellyfin. What are the main advantages to plex?

I really like the more open nature of jellyfin and they seem more ready to embrace new features than plex. For example, last I checked, AV1 encodings are not supported by plex but are by jellyfin.

The only reason I use plex anyway is because I have the problem, that subtitles go out of sync when using the jellyfin app which is pretty much unacceptable when watching anime with subtitles only
