Please describe your bug

When i open the Artist View for Artist "Calyptratus", i see "Albums" and "Appears On". I understand this as:
if album_artist == "Calyptratus" then (add album to "Album"-View), if artist == "Calyptratus" then (add album to "appears on"-View).

I was told on reddit this was fixed in 1.8.x, although files with "Calyptratus" in artist-Tag still get added to the "Album" View.
This unwanted behavior was found in the WebApp and the Android App. Jellyfin Media Player on Linux works, like it should, separating "Album" and "Appears on" Correctly.

See the Album "The Deep Abyss":
only Album Artist is "Tartara Records", and yet the Album shows under "Album".

Version: 1.8.1 linuxserver docker

Jellyfin Version

10.8.0

No response

Environment

Please attach any screenshots here

Edit: Make sure, you didn't mount the /jellyfin-web folder from docker to your host system. the update didn't affect the web folder, as it was mounted. now it works like it should.
