Sadly I still pay for a service I don’t use because I have members of my house who are relucant to embrace the change. I, on the other hand, am more than happy with my Jellyfin and assorted apps to provide my content from whichever source I choose, now if only I could cadjole the others into embracing the freedom of the high seas.
The only superior Linux distro and DE is the one that works for you and meets your needs.
This is different for each user and, frankly, the joy of Linux that it has such a variety as to be able to meet almost everyone’s needs.
For me , personally, thats Debian/Gnome with minimal tweaks but just because it works for my workflow does not make it superior.
Then see what the weather does and whether it’s worth venturing out for a walk.
For specific device recommendations, you seem to be particularly interested in making use of Black Friday deals, and thus I’d assume that price is an important factor. Unfortunately, most Linux-first vendors aren’t particularly known for offering great buck for your money. This does make it easier to choose, though.
Sadly yes, budget is important, additionally System76/Framework are out as they don’t ship to my location and are quite out of my budget unfortunately and I’d rather not use a shipping agent. Given all the advice that’s been given I think the points everyone has made are especially valid and I should wait until more funds are available and purchase a more suitable laptop.
I’m looking at slimbook as they can deliver with EndeavourOS OOB but still will be a harder delivery option but also have more budget options.
I have a Dell Latitude now and it’s been great running EndeavourOS but has now developed a hardware issue so I’m searching black Friday for a replacement.
Few weeks, lol, RD links already disappeared from my Kodi add-ons
Whilst I agree the technology is awesome, £2,000 for a phone, wow, no thanks.
I took the impractical option, but in fairness, only after all other options failed.
Guess you can’t change arseholes but you can sure as shit change houses.
I’m guessing the dog is 14
I think the Austin Allegro would like to challenge you for a car with absolutely zero redeeming qualities.
I use Fentastic skin with Umbrella add-on.
Sorry for the late reploy, but this is what my KODI with trakt looks like on opening the app and the movie section is the same. All widgets are driven by my Trakt account
I accidentally watched YouTube the other night without adblock, OMFG what an experience.
If I can’t watch with adblock I’ll just stop using it, it’s only a rabit hole to waste time for me anyway.
A lot will also depend on your personal usage. Whilst I agree wholeheartedly that Stremio UX is much better that Kodi, out of the box, the one thing that keeps me with Kodi is the fact that it has far superior Trakt integration.
I will admit that Stremio is getting better it’s still a far cry from Kodi with Trakt integration and it’s something I rely heavily on.
That said if Trakt is not your thing then Stremio is probably a better option.
Also, if you’re using RD either with Kodi or Stremio there’s no real need to use a VPN as well as traffic is passed over HTTPS so the ISP only sees that you’re connecting to RD not what you’re doing.
Yes bit not yet released and has been in backlog for 2 years, not great for a mainstream browser.
No, i mean like a tab bar like every other android browser and desktop.
Every other android browser supports tab bar for browsers on wide devices , the one exception FF.
I want a desktop type experience on my tablet not a phone UX.
Unless you’re using android where on tablets it still doesn’t support multi tab browsing but is an overblown phone app.
You could try https://2fas.com/ open source mobile application with browser extensions and cloud sync for backups.
Or www.bitwarden.com password manager is also open source and for a small “premium” supports 2FA for mobile/desktop/browser.
At this point your guess is as good as mine. I e also set up Jellyseer for discovery and ability for users to request stuff but still a reluctance to move.
