I've been messing around with Jellyfin a bit. I'm liking it a lot. The biggest thing I'm missing compared to Plex is how account setups work.
With Plex its nice because I can invite others and they can sign in and will only see their account. It seems with Jellyfin that if I make an account that isnt hidden, it means any user who accesses my Jellyfin will see all of those accounts. Is there another way to do this? I can see that if I possibly hide the accounts but the person logs in, it should then stick around and be visible on their screen? The only issue with this is having to have full fledged passwords for each account. PIN option would be nice once the account is logged in.
I'll keep playing with it. If I can find out a nice way to do the above I will probably switch!
