Will there ever be a PeerTube TV app (official or third-party)? (lemmy.world)

I know Framasoft is a much smaller team compared to something like Google, so developing an official TV app might be outside their current resources.

But what about potential third-party developers?

A while back, there used to be (if I remember correctly) at least two third-party PeerTube apps available for ROKU, but I can’t seem to find them anymore.

Does anyone know what happened to them, and if there’s any chance we’ll see something like that again (Official or Third-Party) for ROKU, Fire TV, Apple TV, or other smart TV platforms?

Also — if anyone here is already working on a TV app for PeerTube, please share!

So, they already have an Android app that's pretty decent, and could be adapted to a TV form factor.

There's also a Kodi integration, but I'm not aware of how well it's been maintained. Given the amount of things Kodi can run on, that might be a good starting point.
