A raspberry pi running Kodi has been serving me well for years.
Easy install paths include LibreELEC and osmc. I believe both are based on debian.
FWIW I chose and have been happy with osmc.
Regardless of the choice, Kodi has a plugin system for things like YouTube, you can access your media via the jellyfin plugin/app, or by pointing Kodi at your media. It has a remote app available on android and iOS, and for the most part just works.
That’s not at all true
Would you rather snaps?
DHH is a Nazi pos, and I hate everyone glazing all over Omarchy.
I’m a little torn because if it helps raise awareness and desktop adoption if Linux, that’s a win, but fuck DHH.
Totally fair. I didn’t know there was an Ubuntu sway remix. That’s nice to know.
Don’t know how you feel about fedora, but their atomic sway spin has been great. Rock solid with a sane, functional sway config.

Looks like I’m an outlier here. I run navidrome on my server, but for jams on the go I use a HiFi Walker H2 dac/mp3 player with Rockbox. I sync my library from the server to the sd card when I add new music/podcasts/audiobooks. I wrote a python cli tool for the syncing.
At home I use the web interface on my laptop, and an old android (wifi only) phone connected to Bluetooth speakers for kitchen tunes.
This is true. The problem is, in a lot of US elections, you only have bad choices. You have really bad, and a little less bad than really bad. What I wouldn’t give for ranked choice voting.
Been using Joplin with self hosted server for years and it’s been great. It’s not the prettiest app, but it’s been the stickiest for my needs.
No. I dont. It should be 20%.
It’s really easy. Graphene has a web flasher with very good instructions, and once flashed, you’re good to go. I haven’t looked back. Once installed you’ll want your apps.
If you want to sign in to the play store and connect your google account to the phone for your apps, you can do that, bu then you’re kinda right back where you started. Not fully, because Graphene, but Google is still gonna google and suck up any and all data it can.
So for apps, look to F-Droid, Obtainium, and Aurora store.
F-Droid and Obtainium for FOSS apps, and Aurora store for play store apps without having to sign in to the play store.
The Move Database is great. Yes the info is sometimes not quite as good as amazon, but it’s way more open than IMDb. You can edit info, and the api is great. I use it in the cli tool I built for myself.
That ship has sailed. Systemd isn’t going anywhere. The upside is you can run a distro that uses an alternative init if you want. There’s runit, sysV, and openrc that I can think of off the top of my head.
You dont have to like, or use systemd. That’s the beauty of Linux.
Pi4 8gb. FWIW, the 5 is not great for media. I don’t remember the details, but iirc they removed hardware decoding from the 5.
