Chromecast

[Encoder0]

I feel like I need to abandon using Jellyfin with Chromecast. I have the simplest setup, and it's barely functional.
Server (Windows PC) -> Android App Casting (Phone) -> Chromecast (built into tv)

Casting from chrome web browser on pc doesn't work anymore at all.

Casting from Android App:
Unstable build has been completely unfunctional for years now.
Stable has a bunch of bugs that make it difficult and painful to use.

• Will lose control or just freeze after being connected for about ~40mins or so
  
• Chromecast controls themselves don't show up in google home app, only in notification bar
  
• If you get a video to play, the now playing bar will slide up, video starts, and then the controls disappear (video still playing), only showing up after you play again
  

This is on top of the bigger problem like casting requiring secure contexts now (https certs), which I don't want to have to set up, and (allegedly) shouldn't be required for local network casting.
Why should I go through the effort of buying a cert, setting up a reverse proxy and/or intercepting my own chromecast's dns requests, when I can just spend 50$ on a CCWGT, and it just works™ because the androidtv app is being maintained?

Has Jellyfin team given up on Chromecast?
