Can I contribute without knowing how to program? - Stricken - 2024-03-03

Hello!

I'm currently using plex, and with every update it just gets worse and I'm getting real sick of it.
I know progress are being made on the Swiftfin app, but it still has a long way to go before I can cut plex out of my life.

Before posting this I did try and search for ways to contribute besides creating new code, but found none.
I've read that you do not want monetary support, so is there any other way I can contribute to the project?

I'm sure there are more like me, who likes what you are doing, but can by no means do anything to help.

You can find ways to contribute at https://jellyfin.org/contribute.

Some of the main ways to contribute without coding are:
* improving the documentation
* triaging issues (try to reproduce the issue and comment with results providing any additional details)
* helping others that have support questions here or on matrix/discord
* testing beta builds (currently there are none for Swiftfin but we will be reestablishing a TestFlight when the app is close to being ready for a new release)

Thanks for your interest in helping out!
