I would be so happy to drop youtube, which is one of my last subscriptions. A nice bonus would be to get my "smart" TV off the internet. But I feel like everytime androidTV or whatever comes up, I get confused as to whether there is a decent solution. What hardware do people use? My RaspberryPI 3 does not seem sufficient, even though people seem to say otherwise. Is Kodi still fine? What I need is something that just works, I can't have my TV going down like all my other funny selfhosted business. The wellbeing of my entire household relies on that.
And then the youtube alternatives: There are so many words floating around and I never know what to do. I do have a server and would be able to get into my network via tailscale, so this would not be an issue. Invidious? That would mean I don't have to deal with the music either ๐ค
