Even if there’s nothing I could have productively done to contribute to that feature, I would absolutely have gone to those getting started features.
So, I’d encourage the team to have a pretty quick hand in issues when people are asking to help to link to this blog post and getting started resources.
Finally, none of this is in anyway a criticism of how any interaction was handled. I super appreciate everyone that works on Jellyfin, and I know onboarding developers can often feel like/be more work than not. Just a suggestion for a good spot to add some CTA links that I think would convert reasonably well
