I don’t fully understand my fascination with Jellyfin. It’s quite impressive for open source software and has some of what commercial software lacks (a sense of being in control and no nags to pay more or use a feature you hate).
There’s something amazing about being able to take a physical item and convert it into one that exists via access by an interface that does not require internet access for everyday use (presumably, I haven’t tested this).
I like adding things to collections and lists and this interface is pleasing to look at the cover art for shows and music.
I share my appreciation for all the hard work, collaboration, and dedication for this to exist today. Streaming doesn’t have to be controlled by big tech. 🙂
