What other devices can serve the same purpose? I only really need to be able to run Playlet, Netflix, and Plex.

Recommend Jellyfin over Plex if you have the ability to switch.

    Or if you want an instant streaming option similar to Netflix/Hulu/etc. try Nuvio instead (or Stremio). It takes some configuration but it's not difficult to figure out. I'll give you a hint: sign up for Premiumize then install these plug-ins to get yourself started: Comet + Watchly + Streaming Catalogs.

    Edit: And BTW it's definitely worth it because everything is on there. And I mean everything. I have yet to find a single show or movie that wasn't immediately available to stream on Nuvio.

    I tried to switch to Jellyfin a long while back but didn't get far because I couldn't get it to keep the folder-based organization structure I already had in place for my library. Is it still the case that Jellyfin doesn't allow folder-centric navigation?

    I believe it's possible? It's not something I use but it could be worth looking into again if you prefer that.
