Jellyfin is great and open source. I've never tried Plex, but I've heard that Plex has apps on more platforms.
Also, I'd recommend checking out Findroid if your on Android. Its UI is native instead of the usual web interface in the official apps. Iirc iOS has a similar project.
Plex is definitely more user friendly. I would like to try Jellyfin again but I host Plex for my parents back home and I don't want to troubleshoot Jellyfin internationally when I know they can just install Plex and log in on their devices and I don't have to deal with it.
Definitely different strokes for different folks but I understand Lemmy is very big on FOSS so it's no surprise Jellyfin has such a positive following here.
Ultimately I'm glad to have options regardless.
How is a login screen less user friendly?
Eveny non-technical mother got the hang of it after I explained it to her one time.
Just the playback has some quirks with audio/subs sometimes.
