I think they meant Apple's "tvOS" - which powers the Apple TV set top box.
~~There's no client for it, if I had to take a guess it's likely due to the costs of doing so.~~
Edit: Whoops, it appears I'm a bit out of date on this.
https://github.com/jellyfin/Swiftfin i've got 5 apple tv users, two android tv and one webostv
Oh interesting, it's been a while since I have tried to use Apple TV (roughly 7 years or so - I don't use any Apple devices anymore), this wasn't available at the time so I'm glad to see there's finally some native support.
there's been a LOT of progress on jellyfin, especially the past year or so. i've been using plex since it forked from xbmc, it ran on the bottom half of a laptop connected to a mostly working projector, both rescued from a dumpster. it's been a fantastic platform for a long time. but i've also wanted off plex since they rolled out the plex account req. jellyfin is finally there for me at least.
