I’ve been running a Jellyfin server on my homelab (with cloudflare tunnel to internet) for a while now, so I may actually look into helping out with this. Jellyfin is fantastic, and has been much easier for me than Plex.
It’s hacktoberfest and I guess I can find some time to solve some easy issues on their repo. Thanks!
this is why i’ll stick to plex, it actually has developers
You realize this is the free and open source software community right? Replying to a call for development support with a commercial closed source product isn’t very helpful.
p.s. despite its “lack of developers” I’ve personally found Jellyfin to be superior to Plex with respect to its core functions.
Ooops, Plex just banned the server provider you were using, guess you’ll have to migrate it all at the drop of a hat.
server provider? what do you mean, they can ban my nas?
Nope, but they did make it so I get suggested streaming providers before my own bloody media. That’s why I switched to Jellyfin early this year. It’s rough around the edges but it’s functional.
Also, if you think this take is edgy, you clearly didn’t read the article. They literally brought up this exact thing coming up on social media. They’re actively making a call for developers to help.

You can disable this entirely.

Plex lays off 20% of its workforce amid advertising slowdown
I want to be a developer and help out the jellyfin community. I started with plex but it felt wrong trusting a corpo with my movie collection, and on top of that I am allergic to paywalls, so I switched to jellyfin and never looked back.
I have someee programming experience, but i’ve never had a real job as a programmer. Where can I start?
There is a link about how to start on the git page. The initial work is fixing compiler warnings and other easy bugs.
I’m thinking to learn more to help with the Google TV app.
