Pretty much the same here. I bought the Plex lifetime sub many years ago and periodically come across a suggestion to use jellyfin. So I setup the latest jellyfin (fast and easy), point it at the same libraries, install the latest apps on FireTV and mobile, and try it out. I always keep coming back to Plex as the jellyfin experience just seems to have more rough edges and those edges irritate at a time when I'm trying to relax with media.
I just checked to see if I put my finger on the rough edges and the biggest one is around navigating through the library. While both Plex and Jellyfin can sometimes fail to find the "best" cover art, Jellyfin misses about 8-10x as often, often yielding random screenshots from the movie or a crazy zoomed-in view of some cover art. Plex far less often misses. (This is running the latest on both and giving both a full metadata refresh of the affected libraries and then the affected title again just to be sure: Jellyfin 10.8.10 and Plex 1.32.3.7192.)
