How is Jellyfin on Apple TV 4K? (lemmy.world)

I'm currently a Plex user and access it from Apple TV's. I find this is a smooth and stable experience that everyone in the house enjoys and is comfortable. I also use PlexAmp on laptops, mobile and CarPlay.

I am interested in Jellyfin and am wondering if I can expect any hurdles or rough edges moving over?

EDIT: Thanks all for the great feedback and suggestions. I think I will give it a try in parallel with Influx and see if it's worth the $100 lifetime purchase.

I use the Swiftfin client since I'm not willing to pay a subscription for Infuse. It works fine for video, except the major pain point for me is that it doesn't refresh automatically, and you can't refresh from within the app. So if you want to see new items on your server, you have to force-quit / swipe away Swiftfin and reopen it.
