#### Burnout / Remember the Person
Jellyfin has been growing quickly as the landscape around us matures and changes. This is both a blessing and a curse. It is great that Jellyfin is so popular and loved by so many, however the increased support requests, combined with the AI code submissions, have led to burnout at various levels of the development and admin team. Abuse from users when something isn't working only increases the loss of motivation. This has already led to delays in client and server improvements.
Jellyfin has been growing quickly as the landscape around us matures and changes. This is both a blessing and a curse. It is great that Jellyfin is so popular and loved by so many, however the increased support requests, combined with the AI code submissions, have led to burnout at various levels of the development and admin team. Abuse from users when something isn't working or a change isn't accepted only increases the loss of motivation. This has already led to delays in client and server improvements.
Please remember Jellyfin is open source and is written by volunteers. There are real people doing the work, and they're doing this for the love of the project. Yelling at them/insulting them will not make anything happen faster, and is actually more likely to delay fixes or improvements.
If you'd like to get involved in helping fellow users, hang out in the [standard matrix/discord channels](/contact), or look at the [forums](https://forum.jellyfin.org/)/[subreddit](https://reddit.com/r/jellyfin) and volunteer answers when you think the question is something you know. Straight AI searching and copy-paste answering aren't good responses, but if it's something you have dealt with, please contribute! The more people who help answer the easy questions, the more we can allow the devs to work on the hard stuff.

Straight AI searching and copy-paste answering aren't good responses and are explicitly banned by the aforementioned LLM policy, but if it's something you have dealt with, please contribute! The more people who help answer the easy questions, the more we can allow the devs to work on the hard stuff.
And of course, if you want to contribute code, we welcome it! Bug fixes are always welcome as-is; but features require a bit more work and a policy that we are still in the process of defining. But if you want to work on a feature, the short answer is: please ask us before you start implementing it and work with the team on a full design/scope discussion to help ensure your work will be accepted!
