If you haven’t seen it yet, we recently made the announcement that starting July 1, 2026, the price of “Jellyfin Premium+ One Super Unlimited (with Ads)” will increase to $0.00 USD*. There has been a lot of enthusiasm regarding charge backs, and we’re simply blown away by the community’s response.
As we’ve had a high volume of inquiries, I’d ask if you could please wait until I’m off the support email shift to reach out about this issue. I’ve attached our schedule so you’ll know when it is safe to reach out.
Thanks, and happy streaming!
*Example price in USD. Exact pricing in other currencies may vary.
How is emby? I’ve got jellyfin running but…the people I share my media with aren’t exactly tech savvy, so any tiny issue that occurs, I am having to fix it by going to their house.
Is emby, just plex easy? Cause that’s why I started looking at plex until this price increase happened.
Jellyfin is a fork of Emby due to some drama I can’t quite remember. Last I used Emby a few years ago, both looked and operated basically the same as each other.
Jellyfin has made improvements since. I can’t speak for Emby since I switched to Jellyfin.
Emby is jellyfin with extra support and development. The apps came out earlier and for more platforms. It supports IPTV. Theres some pretty responsive forum support. Jellyfin may have these things too, but I chose Emby at the time for its native WebOS app.
Jellyfin these days has a bunch of apps, both official and 3rd party, for ALOT of platforms: https://github.com/awesome-jellyfin/awesome-jellyfin/blob/main/CLIENTS.md . webOS alone has 4 different apps available.
Well damn, so I’m not going to get lucky with the easy button for family then.
