@poolitzer@mastodon.social @jellyfin@mastodon.online it's definitely something we've considered in the past. But it's extremely important for us to avoid commercializing Jellyfin in any way. We've seen it with our competition, they slowly start building a company and privatize source code.

@hetisniels@mastodon.social @jellyfin@mastodon.online yes same with newpipe. Hence we founded the association with clear goals to not allow this to happen, and we are very open to expand to more projects. It's a bit of a challenge to formulate all these thoughts and legal reasoning, but in a nutshell German associations are bound to their statue goals, and you can only change these goals with a 2/3 majority. So as long as enough of the people behind the projects join the association, you can assure this never happens.
