It's a media center, you can play your local files or you can use add-ons like the official jellyfin addon and connect to any jellyfin server.

IIRC didn't it start out as XBMC, a media center you put onto the original Xbox?

It sure did, its over 20 years old now.

I guess it has inspired much of its competition, some of which with have added broader scope (like media servers) as one of their distinguishing features.
