I ๐ดโโ ๏ธ all my movies and TV shows directly into my jellyfin media directory, it finds all the meta data and gives me a UI that the most tech illiterate people feel comfortable using. I also store some audio books and youtube videos I've downloaded. I personally would not use it if I did not have movies/tv shows downloaded.

Radarr for movies, Sonarr for TV shows, Lidarr for music and Prowlarr to aggregate torrent/usenet sources and sync to the other arr apps. oh and overseerr to request movies/tv (even if it's just for yourself... it's a nicer interface and has better recommendations than the arrs)
Here's an idea, check out ytdl-sub: https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub
You can set it to track a YouTube channel and it will download videos and set up nice collections for you in Jellyfin, which you'll never lose again and can watch without ads.
I just recently saw this pop up in my feeds. Gonna give it a go when I get a chance. Looks very cool!
Wow fantastic idea, I'll check it out. Thanks!
I've looked at this and it's very complicated at least to me. I can't make sense of how to use it with jellyfin. I'll keep trying to figure it out. Instructions are very good. Thanks again!
