which app to install official or Truecharts

[Robti]

Hi looking to install plex and wondered if i should use the official one or the Truecharts one, sorry a beginner here and had a read but dont know the main differences ?
Thanks

TrueCharts has their own way of doing their apps and provide plumbing that isn't there in the official apps like Traefik and VPNs (among other things).

If you want all of your apps (or at least some of them) to be able to talk to each other and generally play nice, you're better off staying in one or the other camp for all.

TrueCharts has a very large number of apps to choose from and their own support team. I would recommend that option unless you only need the small number of official apps that are there.

Above is an excellent answer. But both work well, I have used both with no problems

That's a great TLDR, nothing to add there! :)
