Libelec (kodi) is fine if only playing local media but its use for anything else except realdebrid is extremely lacking. On the plus side it will run great on an Rpi5 and if you go that route you can probably even use your TV remote because Libelec has excellent CEC support.
Jellyfin/Plex is something your TV also probably has an app for, so you wouldn’t even need a media center, just a media server.
Plasma Bigscreen is making slow gains, but in a couple of years will probably be the definitive Linux media center PC.
Also a bit unconventional, but Bazzite can load directly into Steam’s big picture mode. From there you could set shortcuts for Jellyfin or Plex HTPC.

22·2 days agoCrazy. It had a meteoric rise.
I guess CWA is the one to use now. In a way I’m glad the space will have only a single major player.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Probably want to stop using Booklore...English
502·6 days agoDamn 99% of the time someone says not to use an open source product it’s because of some obscure drama unrelated to the actual program.
But in this case the dev appears to not just be using AI code (not great but debatable) but using mostly AI code and using AI to reply to bug reports. Not something the average person wants to be running in a live environment.
I haven’t used Booklore but the excitement around it was nudging me there. I think I’ll stick with CWAs slower rollout.

If you want a private way to transfer money you need to use cash, or probably some kind of crypto.
If you want to easily transfer money digitally with as little 3rd party intervention as possible then your bank probably uses Zelle

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•YouTube alternatives. Are there any high traffic alternatives?English
5·6 days agoOh I fully agree, but for someone who needs to make money, it makes more sense to post to multiple places including PeerTube instead of just PeerTube.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•YouTube alternatives. Are there any high traffic alternatives?English
12·7 days agoVimeo is on the way out, so Peertube is probably your best bet but it’s nowhere near what anyone who relies on an audience would consider adequate.
Definitely Bazzite, I also love Zorin but IMO that’s more an “Install on your dad’s laptop” OS than something for someone who knows how to install an OS.
Appropriate franchise considering it’s where Google got the “Nexus” name.
