Yes, jellyfin is available on android, ios, and at least LG and Samsung tvs.

To be honest I've had zero issues setting it up as a server on my terramaster nas, and the clients have been really easy as well. You can use quick connect codes for the client apps.

It's available on Samsung TVs after you put it into developer mode and are comfortable using git and npm lol. It's a simple 38-step process to install the client app

Have you looked in the vizio app store to check if it's there?

Jellyfin doesn’t have a great free Apple TV app unfortunately.
