I tried Jellyfin probably 2 years ago and it was fine but Plex is just "plug n play" in regard to my family setting it up themselves with little help from me.
Navidrome plus Arpeggi, Narjo or Symphonium are pretty much equivalent
“Pretty much” doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.
That’s a lot of apps to replace the functionality of one. Pass.
You only need the server and one app
Ok, which app for iOS replaces ALL Plexamp functionality?
