Given the recent news about Plex soon charging for remote access, I wanted to finish up my switch to Jellyfin.

What tools/methods have you all used to migrate watch history to Jellyfin?

I have a few family members in there, and would like to get everything switched over without resetting their watch history.

    PLEX is not FOSS, plex is a proprietary fork of XBMC.

    My point is that in 5 years a lot of these plex users will wish they made the switch to jellyfin sooner.

      I just upgraded to lifetime and also use jellyfin but right now it only does 80% of what Plex does in my workflow so gonna use it until I can’t anymore.

      I know it’s not FOSS. These whiners aren’t going to support any project - FOSS or not- just whine.

      If it takes 5 years to reach that conclusion… A) it’s an easy switch, B) probably saved Jellyfin devs a bunch of moans, C) no regerts.
