          @gardiner_bryant how is Jellyfin for the use case of "streaming to folks who aren't skilled with technology"?

          I'm not the primary user of the media I stream from Plex.

            @ryan IMO jellyfin is better than Plex in a number of ways. Steaming outside your local network is free (but you have you set it up).

            But the Jellyfin app isn't as ubiquitous as Plex is. AFAIK there's still no app for PlayStation.

              @gardiner_bryant I guess really my question is: can a non-tech savvy person set it up if I give them the URL to point at?

              I don't mind setting up a reverse proxy and all that. But it has to be dumb easy on the client end for friends and family to enjoy.

                  @ryan yeah I think so. Just needs a username/password and, if they're using an app, the web address.
