    I have three users setup on Jellyfin, "me" "home" and "kids"

    I have "me" setup to administer the server while I'm logged in.  "Home" for the TVs around the house and "kids" for their tablets,etc....  

    I would like to be able to sync the watched status on movies and shows between the three users.  I can't seem to find how this is done.  Doesn't have to even be in real time, once a day or days is fine.

    1st I installed trackt plugin, setup an account and thought I was syncing, but it appears to do nothing.  Can't figure out why.  Gave up.

    I went down a rabbit hole, setting up a VM host -> LXC container -> docker -> watchstate -> configured backend sync through webgui and I'm stuck there.  It says it ran the import/export, and I believe it did.  Don't know how to now sync between users.  This took about 5 hours on something I originally thought would be easier.  Then I thought, do I really need a dedicated PC setup with docker running to do this?

    I can't help but think I've crazy WAY over complicated things, does anyone else know an easier way?  Is there just an option I'm missing, or a way run some SQL on the database to sync the watched status field?  I only have one server with three users.
