You are not wrong, but my understanding (and how i use mine) could also be wrong
Stremio is for streaming
Jellyfin is a self hosted media manager and relies on you having the files...if you dont have the files downloaded/stored its gonna give you nothing to display.
I set aside a day last year and set up a self host, once up and running its actually quite low maintenance. I use it for stuff i watch regular or that I want to keep (viewed and managed by JF). Also my shows because it just picks up new episodes in the background. Convenient.
For casual streaming when i dont know what i want to watch/check out a new show...its stremio.
You can do the same kind of live streaming with Jellyfin/Plex using Decypharr. It's more complicated to set up, though.
Isn't streamio just paying somone else to leech torrents for you and stream you the results? Just grab the show using sonarr or something and delete it if it's not to your liking.
