Social monitor, Fundraising news from Zama & a lot more :-)

🔍 Spotlight: Jellyfin

Jellyfin is a free software media system that puts you in control of managing and streaming your media, including movies, shows, music, books, and photos. It is an alternative to the proprietary Emby and Plex, to provide media from a dedicated server to end-user devices via multiple apps.

Jellyfin is a fork of Emby's 3.5.2 release and ported to the .NET Core framework to enable full cross-platform support. There are no strings attached, no premium licenses or features, and no hidden agendas: just a team who want to build something better and work together to achieve it.

Jellyfin is free software, licensed under the GNU GPL. The project was started in 2019 and has over 28k GitHub stars.

Fun fact: Jellyfin is currently the most popular project on opensourcealternative.to.
