Currently I use firetv stick but I hate the ads. I only use it to launch arte, jellyfin and smarttube so it's OK. But if I would have children it would be very bad because it's filled with shiny trash everywhere. I wouldn't want my kids (or anyone) to see that stuff.

I am looking forward to plasma bigscreen in june but I can't add more value to it right now than donating to kde. Is there something else? I've got a Samsung TV which is on the same level of badness as firetv. It could be worse but it's far from good as well

I did initially, but then changed my setup a little bit.

My rpi (4b, I think it's 8GB, but it might be 16. I don't remember). Also serves as my on site backup for my media. So Jellyfin is connected to the NAS, and the rpi has two drives in a toaster and I have a cron job that syncs new media from the nas to the rpi whenever I add new stuff.

So kodi is direct playing from the hdds in the toaster.
