@adriannyc I am curious, what distro? I am running CachyOS on my HTPC and the build fails as CachyOS is not officially supported.

@adriannyc
Please tell me more about what I see here! Is this KDE running on a TV?
Hold my remote.

@adriannyc I'm super excited by this. We have usb-c hubs on every screen in the house for the steam deck and laptops (desks and TVs). I dream of being able to connect a #LinuxMobile device and have it fit the screen, moving my content and apps with me.

@adriannyc the year of the linux tv shall soon be upon us
-
@adriannyc huh, plasma has a big-screen UI? does it support controller input?

@adriannyc Nice work! Is this a port to new KDE frameworks/Qt6 also?
-
@adriannyc this looks sick as heck! We are marching ever closer to the day when everything can be linuxed. What TV is this? Or is this a USB plugged into the TV situation?
-
@adriannyc No way...
Thats awesome!
Didn't know you could put plasma on there. -

@wombatpandaa its a regular tcl TV I connected my laptop via HDMI. Can't stand seeing android tv full of ads
. I have heard that the brand Spectre makes tvs without any preloaded OS. -
@adriannyc Did I miss how Plasma got a ui for a tv? If so, how does it fares against android tv?

I'm hoping that I'll be able to set up a Steam Machine as a similar sort of set top box thing, for the same reason. I usually use an Amazon Echo Cube and it's riddled with buggy apps and annoying ads.

@wombatpandaa if only steam releases the ISO for steam OS I'll gladly build a small gaming box. That would be cool. I'm guessing the Steam Machine will be pricy.

@sneaky4oe compared to Android TV the possibilities are endless flathub applications work great the UI is straightforward without bloat.
