My current self study centers around movies/tv and Linq, which this tool seems very similar to.
I'm learning Dutch, so it's a bummer that it's not supported currently, but I'm keen to dig in and see how much effort it takes to add a new language.
Ah, found, it's here: https://github.com/simjanos-dev/LinguaCafe
This looks sweet! The jellyfin integration especially looks awesome as I find watching videos an excellent way to actively absorb new vocabulary.

Japanese only but I am expanding it to more languages early this year.
Wouldn't "self hosted software" just be software?

We support many languages out of the box, would love to hear what's making you consider LinguaCafe over LingQ :)
This clearly takes a lot of inspiration from LingQ, but fixes some of LingQ's more glaring challenges such as letting you use a real dictionary, instead of relying on definitions that were crowdsourced from other learners using the app. (And therefore full of quality problems an inaccuracies.) On the other hand, it sounds like some nice features aren't implemented yet, or maybe not even planned, so maybe LingQ is still a good option if you don't want to hassle with self-hosting a webapp or hunting down your own resources, and don't mind paying the subscription fee.
All in all, though, it looks very promising!
