If it's on my Jellyfin server, I own it as much it's possible to own anything.

If they wanted me to pay for it, maybe they shouldn't have dicked me around, watering down my subscribed services while simultaneously jacking up the price.

you don't have to pay for it, but you're also not entitled to it no matter how much they dick around with their service.

do you really feel like they've wronged you in some way and pirating gets you even?

What do you mean by "entitled" here? Could you explain that word in that context to me?
