You don’t need to share any server technology names, just that it’s the Matrix protocol or “platform”, or even just “Element” if they are using that app. I don’t tell other matrix users they are on a Synapse server.

Only the host needs to know about the server app name, and is the only one who interacts with it directly.

Can you run an automatic chicken door with that? Last time I looked, DIY arduino was the way, but a zwave mechanism with homeassistant automation sounds excellent.

No, really. We don’t actually need your money. At least, not here and now.

We have over $24,000 in the bank, and with average monthly expenses of only ~$600, that’s over 40 months (3.3 years) of runway! So, we have plenty of money for the near future.

Thus, at this time, we want you to seriously consider donating to the authors of Clients you use, instead of (or in addition to) the main project. Client support is the hardest part of the Jellyfin ecosystem to keep going, and most of them are maintained by only a single person or very small team.

So give that applause-cash to a jellyfin client dev!
