I head the Jellyfin apps aren't great. However I admit to never testing them.
The jellyfin apps have a way better UX than Kodi. Jellyfin gives you only what you need in a clean, familiar design that feels like a real streaming service. Kodi is massively overbloated garbage with a confusing and extremely cluttered UI. Typical programmer-designed interface.
I hate Kodi and avoid it always, which thankfully is very easy thanks to jellyfin
I'm running it on a Linux laptop, so I don't see any reason why I couldn't have both. I'll check it out.
I have Kodi connected to broadcast TV streams and Disney+, can I do this with Jellyfin?
No, the jellyfin app is mainly for using a jellyfin server. And for that purpose, it's really good I think. It's not like an all purpose media player with tons of add-ons and highly customizable like Kodi is.
