Look into NGINX Proxy manager and DuckDNS

Portainer has worked well for me but it has so much that I don’t need or use. It looks like Dockhand has a Home Assistant integration which is nice, so I’ll check that out thanks for the rec.

Same and same! I don’t think it’s fully sunk in for a lot of Linux die-hards the game changer that is immutability/flatpaks.

Yes but I recommend waiting until someone makes a version of Linux specifically for Bigscreen because it’s not really ready yet

It’s in the post. They wanted immutability:

“Unraid has always been a so-called immutable OS— however you modify your server, if you go in there, you type the wrong command, you delete all the files from your root, you still could just reboot and you’re back to the virgin release… and that’s a big reason why we’ve chosen Fedora [uCore].”

— Tom Mortensen, creator of Unraid

Not running on a Pi yet, any spying would depend on the distro. There’s no dedicated Bigscreen distro yet but I’m pretty sure it’s being worked on.

I should say the data they send you has all the message text etc, so it’s fun to read through. You can keep it on your computer privately while scrambling what is on Reddit.

That’s true even the premium brands won’t halfway decent CPUs in them to keep the giant bloated menus from stuttering.

If you request your data they’ll give you the links to your old comments and there is software that can use the text file they send you to delete the old ones, fyi.

Also, be sure to scramble the text before you delete the comment/account.

There’s no best answer right now, Plasma Bigscreen is making good progress.

I have to imagine they’ll soon be putting cellular antennas in the TVs to circumvent all that anyway.

I could never get those Android TV builds to work with CEC which kind of defeats the purpose for me. I’ll try it out with the next update. Librelec had no issues.

I couldn’t find a working YouTube app on Kodi, nor any of the streaming sites (besides Disney plus oddly) nor Plex. It kinda felt like a real debrid frontend and graveyard of plugins.

Firefox can edit existing pdf text?

What others are there? This is the first I know of!

Argosy has to be vibe coded because while the UI appears very polished it is the most confusing and inconsistent piece of software I’ve ever used.

If you’re using Frigate with docker you could route the container through a gluetun container.

You’re backing up 4tb for $6/mo? I looked into B2 for a 2tb drive and it was double that.

No need for an alternative, it can be self hosted and (for now) the original repo is still up: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter

Oh nice,for some reason I thought that was only the 5. Surprised we haven’t seen more media center OS for it besides Kodi which is pretty meh these days.

I’m assuming you have a CEC dongle or use second remote?
