Personally I agree. I have no issues with the jellyfin team having their own forums and encouraging people to use them over Reddit. That's not a problem to me at all. I don't like that it feels like they are forcing people to use it though by making the subreddit read only. It almost feels like it's this way or no way. We are right and you are wrong for wanting to use Reddit.
Yes I or someone else could make a new subreddit called /r/jellfinmediaplayer or something like that but all the past posts, discussions etc are all in the old subreddit, SEO links etc will still point to the old subreddit. Plus even if I made a new subreddit I couldn't even post about it redirected people to the new "unofficial" subreddit as the current subreddit is locked down.
If they don't want the hassle or moderatoring the subreddit give that to someone else and just ignore Reddit for good. Surely that's a win win for everyone? The team and people if they choose can pretend the Reddit subreddit doesn't exist and those that still want to use Reddit can.
