I convert my files to avoid transcoding but my Raspberry Pi 4B handles Jellyfin just fine.

Even if it isn’t an OpenWRT router if you have a hardwired server it can probably do a soft reset of the router or even modem (most modems I’ve used have had a web interface). If your router is in such a bad state it only responds to a hard reset it’s probably reaching EoL.

I swear there was an XKCD for this. Not the frameworks one. One about being a “monster” for making another JS framework.

That sounds fair. I hate “tests” that involve things you’d never do on the job.

Interesting. What do you think happened with those you didn’t test? You think they were making stuff up or senior at their job is a far cry from senior at your job?

Neat idea. Seems useful for something like a Codium server too. Keep source local but code, compile, and run(?) on the remote.

LFG!

Drive it like you stole it. If the wheels fall off get another one.

I develop (nothing graphical) and mostly Bazzite has been fine for development. Every now and then it’s a little awkward (e.g. switching back and forth between a native terminal and distrobox) but I’ve never felt it was “incapable” of something. I just wouldn’t discount immutables entirely. If OP is starting from scratch I think they could give it a spin and know within a week if it was incompatible with their workflows.

I don’t have any interest in things like Blender or Unreal Engine but I’m curious what makes them incompatible with Bazzite? The only thing that’s been a real PITA for me is old printer drivers (like a 15yo printers).
