And here I thought my device had suddenly ran out of ram or one of my apps started having major memory leaks.

That can’t be it. We have vents that needs screws on both sides and go through walls just fine. Maybe it’s regulatory instead.

Ha! Shows what you know. I got a 256 year subscription at only 10x the price!

Oh it was. Google timeline should have never become a thing for anyone worried about privacy.

The thought behind it is actually pretty neat though. Being able to see a list of places you’ve previously visited is just super neat to have. Hosting it at home just means that nobody else has that information.

If you want to cut out your ISP device entirely, you will need to know exactly what setup your ISP has given to you, and then match that with your own hardware. The https://pon.wiki/ and servethehome forums are a great place to start for this.

If your ISP device has a passthrough mode that you are happy with using, practically any device with two gigabit ports will work for a 1gbps internet connection. I use a https://friendlyelec.com/ device, because they come with friendlywrt preinstalled, but your choice of router software is basically entirely preference based.

It’s got IR built-in too.

It’s more expensive, but I grabbed a vero 4k a couple years back and have been really happy with it. They’ve since put out a new model with av1 support. https://osmc.tv/vero/

It’s just about the best possible dedicated jellyfin client box out there, so I felt it was worth the extra squeeze when I got it. (HDR support even!) It’s all open source though, so support for things like YouTube, netflix, or any other streaming doesn’t really exist in user friendly manner.

I use a vero 4k. They’ve since dropped support (after seven years) and put out a new model with av1 support. It stills works incredibly well as a jellyfin client box.

Open source/source available only pertains to how the source code is published, it has nothing to do with how the app itself is distrubuted/sold.

Yes, exactly. OP has given no license for his app source code, despite posting it on github. Open source is a gift to public; saying that anyone is open to use and redistribute it however they want.

OP has not given that permission, so the label of ‘open source’ is premature, and possibly misleading.

Open source has never meant “free”

You’re speaking of “source available”. There is absolutely a difference between source available and open source. In this case, no license is mentioned on the github at all. Combined with the Google play price and I’m pretty damn sure this isn’t actually open source.
