IMO, getting an Android TV dongle will probably give you the best experience. Whether you use Plex or Jellyfin. They will have better codec support and have much newer versions of Android. If you need a new one years from now, its a $35 dongle not tied to your TV.

other than i need to setup the docker on my server and i probably already need a lot of time to do that properly, there is any other solution?

Are you using docker because you need docker? Or because someone on youtube said to? If you don't need the capabilities that docker gives you, not having to worry about conflicting dependencies between a lot of apps, you should install Jellyfin directly in your OS.
"This is one of the many drawbacks of" Jellyfin, not of my TVs.
Another box, another remote, for something that my TV already can do pretty well. If it is only me, i would just get a Windows pc and watch things from file explorer, like i'm already doing when i watch things on my pc, but for my parents and other people, it is not that easy. When, as i say, plex exist and work with one click.
As dockers, i run my services on a NAS with unRaid, i don't like to keep 24/7 my gaming system that draw 150W idling when my NAS is 10W idling. Much easier to organize everything.
