Jellyfin vs Teable: at a glance
What is Jellyfin?
Jellyfin renumbers to 12.0 and spends the whole cycle paying down its backend rewrite.
Jellyfin is deep in a 12.0 release-candidate train — five RCs since late June — that exists almost entirely to stabilize the backend rewrite shipped in 10.11.0. The project also renumbered along the way: 10.11.x becomes 12.x, dropping a leading "10." that had made every release read as minor. The outgoing 10.11.x stable line is still getting fixes, but 10.11.11 is down to a single locking change.
What is Teable?
Teable ships daily, and the work has moved from grid features to platform governance.
Teable releases several times a week under timestamped version tags. This window covers admin-governed shared Skills, scoped personal access token enforcement, an instance-wide control over whether platform AI keys reach Apps, BYODB health reporting, and a sustained run of performance work on lookups, computed-field cascades, and large-table operations.

Jellyfin
5.0COLLAB
Jellyfin renumbers to 12.0 and spends the whole cycle paying down its backend rewrite.
◆ Current state
Jellyfin is deep in a 12.0 release-candidate train — five RCs since late June — that exists almost entirely to stabilize the backend rewrite shipped in 10.11.0. The project also renumbered along the way: 10.11.x becomes 12.x, dropping a leading "10." that had made every release read as minor. The outgoing 10.11.x stable line is still getting fixes, but 10.11.11 is down to a single locking change.
◆ Where it's heading
The RC rounds are getting narrower as the train converges. RC1 was a cumulative dump covering the move to .NET 10, removal of legacy API route middleware and deprecated API members, and an HLS transcode seeking refactor; RC5 is batched database lookups and a fix for image endpoints upscaling past the source resolution. The 10.11.x branch is now being maintained mainly as an upgrade floor — 12.0 refuses to install on anything older than 10.10.7 and runs a multi-minute migration on first boot.
◆ Prediction
With RC5 down to query batching and individual endpoint fixes, a 12.0 final looks near — likely one or two more RCs at most. The plugin story is the loose end: the RCs still tell testers to disable external plugins and reinstall from the unstable repository, and that has to resolve before a general release.
Teable
6.3COLLAB
Teable ships daily, and the work has moved from grid features to platform governance.
◆ Current state
Teable releases several times a week under timestamped version tags. This window covers admin-governed shared Skills, scoped personal access token enforcement, an instance-wide control over whether platform AI keys reach Apps, BYODB health reporting, and a sustained run of performance work on lookups, computed-field cascades, and large-table operations.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads dominate. The first is agent infrastructure being pulled under administrative control: Skills published, upgraded, rolled back, and access-managed centrally rather than installed per user, alongside a switch governing AI credentials for Apps. The second is durability at scale, with write bursts, high fan-out cascades, and tens-of-thousands-record selections all getting attention. Together they describe a product hardening for self-hosted and larger deployments where AI features need an audit trail and an off switch.
◆ Prediction
Expect the Skills governance surface to extend toward usage reporting or per-Skill permissioning, and continued work on computed-field cascades, which appear in nearly every release in this window.
