Toyota boot screen! Love it.

Not off the top of my head, but I haven’t used it in a year or two so it’s probably changed a bit since then.

The one feature of Nova I wish Kvaesitso had is swiping on icons can do other things than tapping on them. For example swiping on the wallet icon opens a specific card. Swiping on podcast apps opened audiobook app instead.

You can adjust it in settings up to as many that will fit

Looks a lot like M-Launcher on F-Droid.

I am using Kvaesitso which is great, but not Nova.

Yeah, it sucks because LibreELEC is the only way I’ve ever got HDMI-CEC to work. There are some nice skins too. In a different life, perhaps.

Not the guy to ask about that, sorry. I’ve seen it recommended elsewhere which is good enough for me. If you make a post about it I would definitely be interested. I’m not using it myself but I do keep an eye on the updates.

From what I can gather KonstaKang is the guy who makes these Raspberry Pi-specific versions.

Me too. The original devs abandoned it and it was picked back up by new devs in 2025

The way I see it, if someone eventually makes a Bazzite-styled distro that “just works” with a Plasma-Bigscreen UI on a Raspi it will become the clear and obvious choice for anyone. But we’re far from that still.

Not quite, and believe me, I’ve been looking.

Your best bet is probably LineageOS Android TV on a Raspi 5. From there you can install Kodi too. My issue here is that CEC does not work. Meaning you need a second remote.

I probably don’t recommend LibreELEC on a Raspi, because despite install being seamless, Kodi these days is essentially a real-debrid frontend (which might be what you’re looking for if you want integral torrent downloads!). The normal streaming apps for Kodi are not maintained even PlexJellyfin don’t work out of the box.

Something else I’m keeping an eye on is Plasma Bigscreen but that’s probably 2 years out minimum of being user friendly enough for someone not experienced.

Lastly if you have a Samsung TV, Tizentube will get you YouTube without ads (and other perks).

Ah yeah I’m with you. I actually think LLMs are a useful tool for that initial push- a search query, rough draft (or demo). But I’m not convinced they could ever move beyond that, since creating rigid, reliable structure isn’t what they’re designed to do.

This is interesting but I wonder how he verified the data it was spitting out if he doesn’t know how to code?

Well I’ll be

Looks cool, when can we have that tech in a tablet for reading?

Are these the same people that refused to suspend Kiwi Farms and 8chan?

I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post…

I love the description.

Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see… unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn’t it?

Weird I have the same version.
