Kodi is definitely a very cool project.

I haven't used it much myself. How well does it work with streaming services? It seems like it's designed to be really good for offline content.

I use it primarily with my own Jellyfin instance, but there are Netflix, Disney+ and pretty much anything you can think of plugins. The YouTube irritatingly complicated to get working, but then there are "play on kodi" plugins for various browser so you can flip what you're watching to the big screen. It's really an amazing project.

Out of interest, why do you use Kodi as a frontend rather than a native Jellyfin client?

No more transcoding and/or demuxing subtitles on the server

Also the more mature/retro UI, although you can skin it like Jellyfin’s web UI or like yet another streaming service if you prefer

Kodi is a native Jellyfin client, isn’t it?

Being able to play media from Jellyfin and other locations like YouTube, samba shares, etc is why I tend to use Kodi. I’m not stuck with one server/service.
