Honest question, because I know multiple people who are not looking to jump ship since they already have the Plex Pass.

This multi-server front project, Jellyswarrm is really interesting, which allows the Jellyfin clients to access more than one Jellyfin server simultaneously. I think it may do what you want when combined with server sync.

Would definitely test extensively before putting in production, hehe.

    It doesn't really solve my use-case, since we do a combination of direct stream when possible, as well as local sync/cache but only for transcoding purposes. As well as local users only, with the federated sharing taking care of permissions, so that we don't transfer user information between eachother.

    Jellyswarrm is certainly a lot closer than other solutions people have suggested though.
