Selected

Choose upstream unless you specifically want this fork’s older snapshot or plan to maintain it yourself. It does not show added capabilities, and the 540-commit lag is the main adopter concern.

Prefer this fork only if you want its custom curation workflow and specific playlist edits. If you want the freshest, best-maintained IPTV index with upstream automation and fixes, upstream is the safer choice.

Choose this fork if you want a highly customized IPTV curation base and are comfortable carrying divergence yourself. Choose upstream if you want the latest shared maintenance, lower operational risk, and better alignment with the main project.

Prefer upstream unless you specifically want a frozen snapshot; this fork offers no clear added capability and is materially behind on the core content it is supposed to provide.

Choose this fork if you want a maintained, region-focused derivative with custom playlist curation. Avoid it if you need upstream completeness, broad channel coverage, or the latest fixes from the main project.

Choose this fork if you want its curated playlist selection and are comfortable losing some upstream breadth and freshness. If you need the most complete and up-to-date canonical IPTV catalog, upstream is the safer default.
