    Bigscreen is a new project to my understanding, I would like it to be a thing cause it would fill a nice niche for me that I’m overblowing with Kodi. Kodi is really nice but it feels a little laggy for my system. Maybe I need to tune it for my system.

      change you skin… seriously. there’s some really sleek and light skins out there. changes night and day

      edit - i use a fairly modified arctic fuse skin. The onyl thing that loads slow… is my 2k iptv channels…

        I think i use Artic: Zephyr - Reloaded on a N95 miniPC. It was bad on Kodi 20, on 21 it feels snappier, tho i feel theres still improvements to be made. The skin however made a huge difference. I dunno why they dont have nice sane defaults

          I use the same one! It’s really great. I spent an hour going though the options untill I was satisfied.

      My experience so far

      Kodi (LibreELEC) was running rough on an old i5 4160 or something, when installed on an SD card. It also runs a little sluggish when installed on a Chromebook.

      But I went back to that first PC with a real SSD and now kodi is running fantastic. On a fedora kinoite install

      And paired with some commands for KDE Connect, and I’m pretty satisfied so far. It’s been about four days with it.
