    I do a lot of remote sharing with friends and unfortunately it’s not great for that.

    Also the last time I checked it out the clients kinda sucked. Not even one for Apple TV

        Maybe there was one added since I last checked, or I’m just dumb. Good chance of the latter.

        Edit: oh, 3rd-party clients? I had tried one but they wanted a fucking subscription fee

          Nope. No subscription fee. Just the regular Jellyfin client. I run the server from my PC and watch on the client in my TV. All free.

            Will try again. Though not having stupid simple friend sharing is still a dealbreaker for me

              I tried it out while I was at a friends place (streaming remotely from two internet connections).
              Even the sync play worked very well (the delay between pressing pause and it executing was about 1-1.5 seconds).
              Almost better than watch2gether.
