  • Seems like this topic got lots of attention over night, I really appreciate it!

    It looks like there’s really no solution for what I’m looking for, even if I’d move to windows I don’t think I’d get what I want. Apparently only Apple has that but I’m not sure, never owned an apple device.

    Seems like this would be a cool project to work on, cross platform cross device parental control with Linux as a first class citizen.


  • She’s using a Samsung android phone with Family Link, it’s meh but does it’s job. I’m looking into limiting screen time more than content restrictions, and having the total screen time across all devices in a centralised service is very much what I’m looking for.



  • My daughter has ADHD and if we don’t limit her screen time she can literally spend the whole day sitting and watching Minecraft videos, and then later she gets very grumpy, so yeah while I absolutely hate having to do it, it’s more for her own health than content exposure (not blocking websites and app installation other than by age recommendation).




  • Lol ok your comment just made me realize my mistake, and I’d probably never see it and just go back to Plex instead.

    So what happened is that when I imported my Plex library to Jellyfin I created a library named “Concerts” and content type I probably intended to click “Shows” but clicked “Music” instead which I’m guessing at this point expects only audio files, thus, never listing my concerts files on Jellyfin :)

    That said, I think “Shows” is probably also not the correct content type here, I think they meant more like TV shows, like The Office or Friends etc. Probably the right content type is either Music Videos or just Movies.

    Anyway thanks for the help, I wouldn’t have noticed my mistake if it weren’t for your comment.
