AndroidTV as WebApp?

[asdfgugus]

Currently all the features need to be implemented for jellyfin-web and AndroidTV.
Wouldn't it be possible to integrate jellyfin-web to the AndroidTV app? Similar to the WebOS and Android clients.

No plans for that

To elaborate:

- We already have a fully native app that is actively being worked on
- A lot of Android TV devices don't get frequent update and thus have outdated webviews making it hard to support
- A lot of Android TV devices have low specifications making webapps slow
- The video/audio player still needs to be implemented natively to avoid transcoding as much as possible, this component is also the one that needs the most work.
- Eventually the mobile Android app will also be fully native

That's such a shame. I've been using Jellyfin on my LG C2 with custom jellyfin-web to support skip intro plugin and grey subtitles, as well as some custom css with round corners, round icons, different font and a bit of blur here and there, and it's so nice to use, and works perfectly.
Compared to that, it's a completely different experience on my parents TCL Google TV. It looks and feels completely different, and not in a good way.
It would be nice to have an option to use jellyfin web ui on Android TV (maybe a switch in the settings or something) so people like me can have a coherent experience and design across different devices, while still keeping the native client as a default option, especially for lower specifications hardware.
