The three founders are all great people, but there is a gatekeeping issue within the project (I'm heavily involved, so this is a throwaway account).
The constant mocking accusations and hostility toward third-party clients, plugins, themes, and other tools have made Jellyfin's official spaces unbearable. The atmosphere often revolves around the opinions of a small group of people, and anything that falls outside their preferences will result in a ban.
There are two individuals are the primary drivers of this culture.
- declan_roberts 3mo agoIs it going to get better with these departures?
- WD-42 3mo agoI believe the person leaving was vibe coding too much for other’s taste, so I assume they aren’t the one with strong opinions.

- cvanelteren 3mo agoCan attest to this with my recent interactions on the jellyfin-ios repo.
- r0ckarong 3mo ago> third-party clients Funny how this is the only thing that keeps me from switching from Emby to Jellyfin is the atrocious state of their "own" apps. My last attempt failed when I had to use their Android client. Since I've discovered Wolphin and Findroid it looks a lot more plausible but I just don't have enough pain and lifetime Emby Premiere was still reasonable when I bought it.
- unixhero 3mo agoThe official Jellyfin app for Android is fine and usable now. So is Findroid.
