LinuxTV is a Debian-based Linux distribution designed for computers connected to a television. Rather than booting into a conventional desktop environment, it starts with a fullscreen launcher intended to be viewed and controlled from across a room.

but i do love kodi so so much though. such a great platform with the ability to be controlled from so many avenues.

if the addons had a bit more attention, it really could be great.

the new arctic skin truly make it better than any steaming service, and if one happens to have media locally, it just can't be beaten (when used with jellyfin/emby/plex)

Kodi is the best option in the current state of Linux on the TV. That’s why I prefer something like LibreELEC for now. I rooting for things like this to improve though.
