If you’re hosting plex or jellyfin I’d recommend an old Intel processor with quicksync. I paid like 200 for my pc on ebay gutted it and put it in a bigger case for more hard drives. Runs 4k videos like a champ with no GPU installed.

I hesitantly switched a while ago, have had 0 ragrets except that there are some games I can’t play like EA games. But is that really a bad thing though?

Agreed, it’s just hard to find a suitable replacement for many things like tvs, since there’s a lack of alternative apps for other platforms on things like roku or LG tvs

Pihole doesn’t block YouTube ads as it’s only a dns blocker, Google serves the ads from the same servers as the videos from what I understand. Adguard home works the same.

Invidious used to work, it’s a self hosted YouTube instance that blockw out ads and has things like sponsorblock. I have Playlet installed on my roku pointing at my instance but about a week or so ago it’s been giving only errors 😔.

Good news is that it’s slated to go stable some time this year iirc.

If I were to bet, I’d say the campaign is ran by a company that rhymes with Smoogle

Pcs are clearly inferior, that’s like 32gb on a Mac. /s

Brother printers, I also had an older ricoh you could just buy toners and chips or even use a raspberry pi script to reset the chip page count

Well shit I signed up because it worked on plex…

They can order both on Amazon duh…

“yeah but that’s like having 32GB on a lame PC”

Probably one of the higher end models?

To be honest, I’ll be forever dubious of new products that seem to be in every other YouTube video. I returned this one after a day or two of troubleshooting. It also didn’t support openwrt if I recall correctly.

Thanks, this has been added to unraids community app store BTW so hopefully you get a good uptick in users from there.

I’d stay away from that particular one. We ui was slow af and whenever wireguard connected it crawled to a stop.

My best purchase in the last couple of years was a 4k Sceptre TV from Walmart. Super cheap, good enough video quality and is dumb, just turns on to 4hdmi ports. That way I can just plug in whatever I want, or get a $30 roku and replace it whenever they update it to the point where it lags on basic menu navigation like my previous tvs.

Fuck all that bloatware, ad infested crap.

Ahh so this guys either a troll or a conspiracy nut. Ez mute.

“FUCK!” - Intel execs

Pop os is pretty awesome. Using it now and been gaming just fine. I shouldve made the switch years ago.

Whatever my installation CD had as default 😂. I’m guessing ext4?
