Nice, I appreciate the analysis. I’m still early enough on with Jellyfin that I’m still willing to ascribe every issue to user error but I think I see what you mean. But I keep telling myself that I will contribute to a large multi-dev OSS project at some point and still never have; contributing code in public is still kinda nerve-wracking. maybe if I have a selfish enough reason to fix something I’ll finally push through that 😆
They both refer to behaviors or attributes associated with children, but “childish” has a generally negative connotation and “childlike” has a generally positive connotation. e.g. “childish behavior” is usually something the author judges inappropriate, where “childlike wonder” is usually rendered as a positive (if often infantilizing) attribute. Similar definitions, but quite different in implication.
