I can't wait to use this as a smart TV launcher

That's a big part of why I wanted one. Sure I can just use a laptop or build a small PC (hardware prices today notwithstanding), but the form factor alone is enough of a motivator for me.

Definitely interested in this. Want to see if it has a good lock screen that works well with a gamepad. Install it on my regular desktop

Will I be able to install this on my Xbox One X now that they’ve hacked it?

Turning that in to an underpowered steam box would be sweet.

plasma bigscreen has been around for a while tho. i have been using it on my Debian TV box for a few years now.

It was abandoned essentially for quite a bit of time, I believe it has been removed from the debian repos as well. Recently KDE revamped the UI and revived the project around Wayland and modern Plasma.

I've been waiting for the latest QT version, and the transition to OVOS from Mycroft for voice
