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Edit: Whoops, it appears I'm a bit out of date on this.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.
Oh lol, of course apple just calls it TV OS
