Step 1 - Dont. Step 2 - Install Jellyfin
What's so great about jellyfin anyways? I have a lifetime plex pass so I'd be a waste of my money if I stopped using plex
This article covers it in depth.

It's a different answer for someone already invested and paid up for life on plex though than it is for someone looking to do their first install.
I noticed jellyfin doesn't have mobilesync, does that mean I wouldn't be able to watch stuff away from home on my phone for example?
It's worth to mention the Findroid app which can download for offiine viewing
Plex does reencode and sync to phone for offline watching. Jellyfin you would stream direct. If you often go places with no Internet then sync is better, otherwise you'd be fine.
At work I don't have wifi so I'm forced to use my phones 4g
If you pre-encode and sync over episodes for later, then yes plex will work better for you. If you watch streaming over 4g then you'd be unaffected
Some reason I read this as one sentence. Haha. I think it's because it didn't make a line break on Sync.
I have edited it to prevent such misreading :)
