Jellyfin is great for movies & shows. As an anecdote, it's not so good for music if you're a collector. I personally use Navidrome for that[0].

Anyway, Sonarr[1] makes use of .NET, too. Very reliable software, in my experience.

I am a music collector and I don't see a problem with Jelly, apart from android app pausing after first song.

It recognized my Musicbrainz filled library immediately without any problem, it was 0 effort to have it fully available on the web with multiple accounts.


IME Jellyfin struggles to deal with a few edge-cases, and the ecosystem for Subsonic is generally better: more applications, more servers, and therefore ultimately more choice. Though Navidrome may be the most popular, there are plenty of clients to choose from (Supersonic, Sublime-music, etc. etc.) where such an ecosystem doesn't really exist for Jellyfin.
