Not exactly self-hosted but I know many jellyfinners here would cherish this as well.

    That’s looks much better.

    I tried the older version for my htpc and didn’t like it.

    I would love to see this keep improving.

    Is this basically a DE? Could you run steam and full on gaming PC off this?

        It’s using plasma-nano session, which is a minimal Plasma session, and adding a launcher and settings app from what I can see.

        You can run it in a regular window if you install the dependencies and use kde-builder to compile it and run. See the Dev docs at https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-bigscreen/

        If you do decide to install all the kde-builder stuff, I’d suggest you use a distrobox container to make it easy to remove the many, many packages that it will install in order to set up the build environment

        It’s not that. Or at least you have to reboot into it.

        …or can you just load a desktop environment without rebooting… Keeping your apps open…?

        It’s a Linux concept. Basically, imagine you could have a Windows 11 PC with the Windows XP GUI or with the macOS GUI. In Linux, these kinds of different GUIs are just desktop environments, which you can install as you see fit.
        Conversely, you can also have an OS without a desktop environment, which is basically what’s used on Linux server PCs.

    Does it have Stremio and an equivalent to YouTube ReVanced/SmartTubeNext? If so, I’m sold. I’m tired of the slow clunky interface on my Android-based TV. Paid nearly $2K for this fucker and they couldn’t even be bothered to give it a CPU with more than 2 cores, nor more than 8GB of storage space. Like a cheap Chinese Android phone from 2014.
