I've since switched to jellyfin, but I initially chose plex because it was the only option with a client for Tizen. It certainly felt native but very well could just be a web app.

What's wrong with progressive web apps tho? If every device has a browser why bother writing native code for an app that doesn't need it? A single code stream for numerous platforms is a win if you ask me.

I find the Jellyfin webapp a pretty bad experience on mobile, compared to FinDroid.

I really like the webapp on my LG webOS TV (especially good with the Magic Remote) though.

So I guess it kind of depends on the platform.
