    Just use a mini PC and pirate everything. The amazon fire interface sucks anyways. Every streaming service is in a different app and you have to remember which app to use for each show.

      After a long time trying to wrap my head around, I finally have jellyfin, are Services, with transmission running behind a vpn, all running seamlessly with a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. I’m only sad I didn’t do it sooner. Fuck these companies.

      If you want a new console + a PC at your TV, I think the new Steam Machine could be nice for that.

      Running SteamOS (Linux) this should be good, or am I missing something?

        I suggest Bazzite if you want a better expirience, it’s more mantained than the public steamOS release and has a little more features

          Oh so you already own a Steam Machine and installed it? What’s the performance like? Did you install Kodi?

          If you’re running a steam machine or a steam deck, SteamOS is the way to go. It’s significantly smoother, and running Bazzites Game Interface version is buggy and slow as hell in comparison to native steamos

          HDMI-CEC out of the box? Does it not lose focus when you turn off/on the TV so keyboard/remote navigation becomes impossible?
