PlexKodiConnect VS dim

I used to do that, now I use Plex (running in a docker container on a machine under my stairs) and the Plex Kodi Connect (PKC) to sync my Kodi database to my Plex database. Best of both worlds

That being said, there are other client apps for Android: you can try Kodi, and use this plugin: https://github.com/croneter/PlexKodiConnect to use it as a Plex client. It is definitely much faster than the Plex app, and the setup while intimidating, is actually simple.

PKC developer here. Stability is number 1 priority, I had the impression that's been working pretty great. I would love to get my hands on your log files to fix whatever issue you had: https://github.com/croneter/PlexKodiConnect/wiki/How-to-Report-A-Bug

Open Kodi and go to settings>add-ons and switch on "allow unknown sources" and add new repo: https://croneter.github.io/pkc-source

Dim is simple media server You can look at. Dim

Someone recently told me about this one, too. https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim

Anyway, there is a growing number of potential competitors such as dim and Olaris Media Server but as of right now there isn't an alternative that I would consider to be equal to plex, however I think we're getting close, it might be another year maybe two before we see any real competition, it mostly depends on how fast the alternatives can be developed.

I've been amassing a library which I've exposed to some family members via Tailscale

Dim (https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim) is also a decent shout.

From Jellyfin to Olaris and even DIM, there is a rise in media server options, one day soon Plex will have a serious competitor and I can see a lot of people, myself included, moving to one of these competitors.
