Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

I would recommend Symfonium for muaic listening.
It has an insane feature set (and it can support both Plex and Jellyfin libraries

One of my killer features of it are rolling cache. And you can decide how big and how it behaves to cache songs

I use Jellyfin to listen music at best on desktop at work through the browser

Can you explain rolling cache? I'm pretty sure plexamp does this, but maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're referring to.

My phone UI is german so I translated it with google. Text should be accurate enough

It's essentially like Spotify does it (probably)

Should something be unclear, give me a heads up :)

Gotcha... Yes, Plexamp does this as well:

Probably inspired by it.
It's a neat feature :)
