I love having full control over my music files, but one of the major pain points is moving between applications. Say I start using plex, get real comfy with my playlists, then one day I decide to try out Jellyfin. Sure, I still have all my music on there, but none of my playlists.

Is there some sorta solution I'm not aware of that allows for migration of playlists across platforms / applications?

If you make your playlists in M3U format and put them somewhere in your music directory, they'll work on anything.

For example, I've got files like music/playlists/12-steps.m3u in mine, and they work flawlessly on VLC, MPD, and Jellyfin.
