It was forked but somehow lacked a huge amount of functionality that Emby had (and still has) Like I think it only supported films, not music or TV shows. The app infrastructure was awful across fire stick, Roku and android and wasn’t backward compatible with the Emby apps. I just didn’t see the point of forking it if you’re just going to make it worse or only address the server side and neglect the clients. The whole thing has to work together with good clients and server.
Looks like you need a closer view about actual functionality. Jellyfin supports movies, tv-shows, music (there are also apps just for music), e-books and live-tv.
Worse how? Jellyfin was forked from Emby, and since then has continued to improve in my eyes.

Jellyfin has supported Music and TV shows since the start

I kinda wonder how I’ve been watching shows for years, then…
Yeah jellyfin still has a number of issues that should be worked on, but it’s nowhere near as bad as you claim
