I’ve found a nice home with Mint Debian edition. It has the right balance between stable and current that I prefer.

Jellyfin does.

I can confirm and I do use this feature of jellyfin. It works great. The reader is unusable. I use Librera for reading. It’s great, free, and open source.

So my flow is biblio, mam, library Genesis, Anna’s. Then to jellyfin folder that it reads automatically. Then I can download that to any device connected to the jellyfin server. Local is easy, abroad through tailscale.

Holy shit that’s commitment.

Also, don’t forget to look at Standard Ebooks for legal, well formatted public domain books. It’s a great site.

The only place I found it was on myanonamouse. It’s a pdf with side-by-side greek english with translations by Richard Fitzpatrick.

Is this the book?

All these suggestions are great. I’ll just add that qbittorrent has a built in search feature that is often outstanding. And rutracker is great for music torrents.

I had a beelink ser5, and without giving you the bench marks, I can tell you that many games that were unplayable on cinnamon or kde, did work in openbox. I would log out and back into that DE just to play games.

Just my observation. I have upgraded my PC so I haven’t needed to repeat that with my new one.

Having tried many, I found that the desktop environments matter more than the actual OS, especially on older machines.

Going for something really light, like openbox, lxde, or xfce, caused less frame rate drop and stuttering. At least on my lower powered mini pc.

It’s certainly older but Revolution OS is pretty thorough.

Seconded LMDE. Super stable, polished, and intuitive.

I use Doku at work and can attest that it is easy to use and works very well. Even for industrial applications.

Nope. I was in your position with a Pi400, got tired of the poor performance with streaming UHD stuff across multiple devices and went with the ser. I now have a ser 5 and 6, and they are beasts for their size.

I have one of these and it’s outstanding:

Criterion Collection

Or

Janus Films

Both offer the best films of all time.

Yeah that beats a t shirt. That filled with a pint of fresh local brew sounds heavenly.

WHAA? They made mugs. That so cool. I wanna see.

I’ve got 2. One I’ve worn and one that I never have. The worn one I’ve only wore a handful of times because, even then, I knew it would never be replicated.

I have bought accessories from them, like wifi dongles and USB sticks. They’re great and have worked flawlessly for awhile. I cannot arrest to their more complex stuff though. I’ve always been curious.
