This design looks so cheap to me, it's just a bunch of random covers, there is no information about the movies presented in any way, the covers are way too big and take up an inordinate amount of space and there is nothing breaking up sections, design is just so fucking dumb now, fuck mobile
rant over ๐
UI's for movie streaming services are not designed to help you find something to watch. They are designed to keep you "engaged", which means in the platform and not realizing that the pool of actually interesting things is about as deep as a puddle. Everything about streaming sites' design is user hostile and this is a classic example of that.
If everything was already displayed, then the clicks per hour data point wouldn't be enough to get the new marketing hire their bonus for that mafe IP metric
Isn't Jellyfin the same design as all the streaming platform and they have nothing to gain for keeping you engaged?
Yeah but they don't have highly paid UX design teams, so they're probably just copying design choices on the basis that they're trying to offer people a similar experience they can own.
Also, it's FOSS so you can always make your own skin/theme.
That's bullshit. These are basic design principles they teach in every single design school in the world. You don't need "highly paid design teams" you just need someone with some education.
And this design philosophy has apparently invaded every single corporation on Planet Earth, so I really have no fucking idea where designers are even employed lately.
It's the same reason why every "AI" logo looks like a butthole!
We await your contributions to the project (you won't ever contribute)
I have in the past, but I'm pretty sure Ive discovered recently I'm much happier just wrestling with words and word processors than graphics and 3D stuff and associated headache software which also does graphic or 3d stuff.
Smart designers found the life hack that they can join a highly paid team and work just enough to not get fired.
That's because they employ you and then force you to do bullshit things
I bought ice trays recently that had no way to stack, and literally shattered the second time I tried removing ice. Ice trays. ICE. FUCKING. TRAYS. WEVE HAD ICE TRAYS FOR LIKE 100 GODDAMN YEARS. WHY ARE WE STILL STRUGGLING WITH DESIGNING ICE TRAYS???
Almost, but it has movie titles under the poster/cover and usually pulls the actual movie covers.
Once you click into it, it gives a shitton of detail about the movie.
Is this not the case with netflix/hbo? Sorry i never actually used any streaming service before other than Jellyfin so i don't understand what is the issue here
Two things off the top of my head:
Jellyfin displays ratings from RT (and opencritic maybe?), while Netflix has stopped displaying their own user ratings years ago.
Jellyfin displays the full cast and crew. When you click an actor, director,... it shows you other media where they appear, even individual episodes. Netflix has none of that.
Ohh, okay, that's actually horrible.
No. that's all behind another level.
So does Netflix etcโฆ..
Jellyfin has like six different view types to pick from, including one that doesn't even show images. And almost all the others show the title always visible below the preview image.
Jellyfin a) only has the content you feed it, so you already have some knowledge about it and b) you can expand it with plugins and make the design however you like it.
Good point! Alongside the UX dev comment there's probably a benefit in making the base theme familiar and easy to use for newcomers.
Funnily enough the first theme that shows for me on this site is a netflix theme ๐ ! https://jellywatch.app/hub/category/themes
Everything others said, plus you can choose your client. For example, I use VoidTV for Jellyfin on my TV which offers a different design (though I use it because it's the only Jellyfin client where DD video+audio work).
Yeah I suppose, you just gotta pick one thing and then it does the rest, or that's what they want probs
