i just use kodi for my content. Data is on my router's hard drive, and before that it was some USB spinning rust attached to the ISP's router, and it just works (Well, TV series needs to be stored with the required folder structure / names to be recognized, but that's it)

That's my usecase, so i never got the PLEX appeal (if i'm outside i just stream from the usual sources)

Yeah don't even try to compare Kodi with Plex in terms of UX and user friendliness. Kodi is borderline unusable, at least on Android TV?

Say what? I open it, i have the list of movies, i select one. What else do you need?

You can also install alternate UIs. There is one that makes the whole thing like an android TV, and another that looks like netflix, also offering you stuff you don't have on your drive. I tried, i removed it. I prefer the stock Kodi interface (not perfect, but doesn't try to sell me anything.)

You just highlighted one of the major Plex appeals :-)
