Yeah, music slowing down jellyfin search was the reason I moved to navidrome.

How big is your library? 1min is excessive but I also noticed jellyfins search getting slower with an increasing amount of shows and movies. There’s projects like jellysearch which improve search noticeably.

I’m honestly fine with DRM, as long as it’s removed within my definition of reasonable time. I’d say a year vor two.

Once the DRM is removed it allows for archiving and preserving the piece of media — as well as pirating copies.
