jellyfin/Jellyfin.Server/Program.cs, branch v12.0-rc2

Add a cancelable redirect handoff and drop the transitional migration status

2026-06-25T04:42:31Z

When the server finishes starting, show "Jellyfin started successfully" with a 5-second "Redirecting in N…" countdown and a Cancel button instead of reloading immediately. Cancel stops the countdown and the background refresh so the startup output can be reviewed, and offers a "Continue to Jellyfin" button to reload manually. The buttons use the web client's emby-button styling. Also drop the transitional "Applying migrations" activity: it only showed briefly while the pending migration set was read, or for the whole step when nothing was pending, so startup now goes from "Preparing migrations" straight into "Running migration X of Y".

Restyle the startup UI and add a generic startup activity line

2026-06-22T04:00:38Z

Restyle the startup/migration holding page to match the Jellyfin dark theme, with the inline wordmark logo, a gradient spinner and a recolored startup log tree, and move the Morestachio template rendering into a reusable StartupUiRenderer. Add a curated, non-identifying "current activity" line to the always-visible header (for example "Initializing server" or "Running migration X of Y"), reported from the startup flow and the migration service so it never leaks server details to unauthenticated clients. Move the log download into a "Download logs" link in the log panel header, and show only the header, with no log hints, to non-local clients.
