I got a cheapest Android smart TV and never connected it to the internet. On HDMI1 there is Amazon Firestick for the occasional Netflix use. On HDMI2 there is Kodi for every day watching. Because of how modern TVs work, both these extra boxes can be steered with the TV remote.

It is great as a private communication app for a close group. I'm running my own server because you have to trust your server operator with metadata, and because I found random public servers to be too short-lived for sustained usage by non-tech people.

Since when? I made two attempts over many years and an elaborate offlineimap and msmtp setup was needed both times.

It may have to start being my thing, I moved to a place on ground floor with no sunrise or sunset view. I never thought about it when moving, so now I'll have to supplement my sunset intake
