I didn't see Waterfox mentioned in the article or comments, so I'm giving it a shout out now. Firefox is still my #1 browser, which I have synced to all my critical accounts, and use very cautiously, only using a few trustwothy extensions. However, when I want to explore unfamiliar domains or experiment with lesser-known browser extensions, I've relied on the equally dependable Waterfox browser. It's fast, free, and 99% the same as Firefox except it's a completely different app so you can basically have 2 Firefoxes set up and customized for completely different roles. Between the two, I can keep Chrome frozen on my phone and off my desktop (although I have a portable Chromium on USB for emergencies).

There is a alpha client and instructions available here: https://smartdigihere.com/jellyfin-on-samsung-smart-tv/

However as stated further down the article, it's easier to just use a web browser and access your jellyfin server that way. Login, bookmark the URL (don't forget to include the port) and then hit full screen.

Note: You may need to tweak (server side) your transcoding and subtitle settings.

I noticed the age of the interviews after replying - kinda sad, reminded me of forums I joined around that time, and have since dried up as technology evolved. I actually ran opensuse for awhile around that time too (it was not very polished) - shame I didn't know about the interviews then.

Nowadays I run a Fedora-based distro called Ultramarine - which rocks! Fast, smooth, stable, versatile. Small but knowledgeable and very friendly Discord-based support. Sponsored by a small startup called Fyra Labs. I thoroughly recommend checking them out.

Better than the dreaded Pop 'n Sizzle...

Here's a page from OpenSuse's website that links to some really interesting interviews with people who contribute to the project:

https://people.opensuse.org/index.html

Quote from interview with Ludwig:

Q: Three words to describe openSUSE? Or make up a proper slogan! A: Lots of fun!

Q: What do you think the future holds for openSUSE? A: The future is unwritten. As long as we have brilliant people we will see new ideas we haven’t thought about before.

Q: If you would have unlimited resources, what would you do with it? A: What kind of resources?

Q: Let’s say you have money to hire a thousand people to work on openSUSE. Who would you hire and what would you let them do? A: Finally fix RPM, printing and KDE? :-)

Q: Star Trek or Star Wars? A: Star Trek.

Q: Torvalds or Stallman? A: Pfft.
