For the love, as a Plex alternative, they don’t even have a native app on all major tv stores. It should be a P1 feature.

Are you really bitching this hard about a completely free and open source project?

It's not technology or finances that kill most FOSS projects and burn out the devs. It's this kind of shitty entitled unappreciative demanding attitude from users.

As others have pointed out, there are fully functional and good quality frontends available, such as Swiftfin.

I maintain open source projects too, and I fully understand the burnout, the pressure from supporters and such. What I was saying is they can do better from a project management perspective. Otherwise I love their work :3

Swiftfin is buggy atm, like my other comment.

Then you should know better than most that your wording and approach matters.
