From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My experience with kodi is that it's over complicated, and not as robust as jellyfin. I would constantly nav into the wrong menu and the ui is clunky
Why not just use kodi as a jellyfin bootstrapper?
This is probably what I'll end up doing, but then all the movies / tv / audio menus in kodi are just wasted space
If you go in the add-ons you can download themes that completely change the UI. They can also be heavily customized. Useless menus can just be removed.
For me those menu items just map to the files on kodi. And any unused menu items can be removed in the settings.
