Long time since the last release but hopefully this was worth the wait - Manet will now not transcode AAC or ALAC audio when streaming from Jellyfin (assuming quality settings match of course), reducing your server load. Other than that there has been lots of small changes, most notably I’ve now fixed it so the app no longer crashes when playing long tracks (more than an hour).
