Kodi has made my setup dead-simple: File server running on TrueNAS serving my library over SMB/CIFS and Kodi does all the "management" on the client side (which really is just my watch progress and metadata), so my server is just a dumb box of disks in RaidZ1. I have only one client, and as for configuration, I just created two media objects in Kodi: TV and Movies, and the rest is default other than the unrelated IGAL setup.
I like what I read about the arr's and Jellyfin, but until my current setup feels cumbersome or insufficient, I'm sticking with it.
Yes. Kodi is awesome for large displays, but I really don't think the UI and skins are a good fit for mobile.
I've tried DDL for a while, but manually searching and selecting the right quality isn't my thing. It's simple though, compared to the many hours of setting up arr* for the right quality/language.
The main advantage is probably automatic download of new episodes, otherwise manually downloading doesn't take much time compared to how long a movie/show is.
