Since you talked about jellyfin, you may try project called Remux, it is a jellyfin server which can also take stremio addon. Have not tried it myself but thought it was worth mentionning

Brilliant! I'll take a look at that.
While the Stremio app doesn't have a settings lock feature, if you're using Android, per this Reddit thread you can at least disable access to community add-ons by switching the device type in the Stremio settings to FireOS.
Per this page on the Stremio GitHub, apparently the default Stremio content search plugin, Cinemeta, is configurable from the web client to restrict what appears in searches based on age ratings. As the other comment pointed out, they seem to restrict the option to paid users, so as an alternative per this documentation, AIOMetadata is a third-party plugin comparable to Cinemeta with its own parental control feature. The associated AIOStreams plugin apparently also incorporates parental control functionality.
I don't think there are any parental controls, as last I remember seeing a conversation about it, one of the devs spoke about it being incredibly difficult to implement. But there may be some addons that can help a little like
I'm assuming that creating another account on the device itself (Chromecast, firestick, etc.) with another stremio account specifically for the kid is a bit more work than you'd like?
Huh.
The...idea just didn't occur to me.
Well, shit. Now I feel dumb(er).
Though in fairness...can -
-
the same debrid account be linked with two different stremio accounts?
-
can the default Stremio discovery service be replaced with a more kid friendly one? I know that they can just search for whatever, but out of sight out of mind.
-
Does having two separate Chromecast accounts / Android TV accounts give two different sets of installed apps?
I like your idea; if it works it's an elegant solution, esp if the main account can be pin locked.
I'll check it out tonight and report back.
My solution is just a work around because it would be so much easier if Stremio did have separate accounts as part of it's function, but we work with what we have.
-
It should unless your debrid service specifically restricts signing into multiple devices. Most just restrict multiple IPs
-
I'm not sure to be honest because I haven't had to replace the default stremio discovery myself. I think someone else mentioned that you can. Or you could at least add a catalogue with pg-13 filters.

I haven't done this before, but my understanding is, yes, it would give separate apps
