    I build my own TV stack to replace my NVidia Shield. It’s way better… has a kick ass weather app with radar and wind lines. I can push notifications from any home assist or integrate with any api… integrates with Jellyfin… a photo sharing app I built… youtube is awesome. Super snappy. I gave one to my 80 year old Dad and it’s now his d daily driver. The only thing I cant do is get streaming 4k from Apple and HBOMax due to their drm.

        Yeh, I’m allergic to wilfully being exploited and squeezed for any and all reasons.

      Well at least with jellyfin the DRM problem should be solved… “simply” add a secure source of entertainment and pre-load all the apple and hbo shows haha.
