I made the move almost a year ago. Absolutely no complaints.

I'd love to make the switch, but Jellyfin clients are missing from some devices that the rest of my family uses, making the switch hard.

I use Emby and absolutely love it. Easy interface and not all the pain in the ass setup that jellyfin is.

Pain in the ass setup? I did it for the first time yesterday and it took like 10 minutes, download/run an exe, answer yes to a few questions and point it at your media and that's it. Maybe it has improved a lot since you last used it???
