    Is this supposed to be like Plex or jellyfin where you provide your own content but with a wrapper for ‘playlists’ to make them seem like channels?

      No.

      This is where you provide a streaming link file like m3u8 or a link to such a file and watch streaming content provided by others. For example NASA has a channel like that, so does CNN, and various other ad-supported TV network streams. There are also paid providers that require a subscription for example to access content.
