It's a music player. How could it not support audiobooks? You think it will rate your tracks and refuse to play them if they're insufficiently "musical"?

It would almost be like it wasn't really built with audio books in mind, but was rather designed around music.
If Jellyfin was designed around music, then I would expect it to support gap-less playback out of the box. Albums where each track seamlessly transitions into the next are not that rare
I think what you said is a fair response to me, but I wanted to respond to this specific phrasing.
I don't think Jellyfin was designed around music. I think music was an afterthought added after the fact, and shoehorned into the rest of the experience. And then I think audiobooks in jellyfin are basically an afterthought of an afterthought.
(Again, I'm just responding to clarify if I accidentally conveyed a misconception about Jellyfin's music support)
