Linus says and I agree plex better shape up or people will leave.
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.

Syncing Kodi across multiple devices
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
- PLEX only buffering on a Nvidia Shield (high bitrate files)

There must be a better plex client then Nvidia shield!
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.
