I’m not Admiral Patrick of the former dubvee.org I just play along to waste the time of those who believe they are successfully harassing him.

Fedora has become the best “just works” distro for everyday users, imo. Especially in the immutable varieties.

0·2 days agoIt’s hard enough getting some companies to develop Android apps (not to mention the Android watch OS has barely anything) as much as I’d like to see a Linux phone OS catch on, unless there is some kind of Proton-layer for Android thing I just don’t see any companies making apps for it.

Lol at “He’s with Ben Sisko now”. Also congrats on your first Tea. Earl Grey is a bit of an advanced power user sort of tea but it won’t kill you you’ll get the hang of it.

10·6 days agoThis is my white whale. There is a guy making LineageOS versions of Android TV that seem to work well for some people but in my experience are buggy and I couldn’t get CEC working no matter what I tried.
Libreelec (kodi) works fantastic and CEC is flawless with every device I tested, but Kodi these days is really only good for local media (not Plex, Jellyfin, Youtube or streaming services) and real-debrid.
KDE Bigscreen is my last hope, but it’s probably going to be a while before it’s ready, not even including the inevitable wait for TV-interface versions of streaming apps that can run on ARM (if you’re using a raspi).
