No apple TV please. Needs to support some kind of casting, and the addition of whatever googles casting is would be nice (for an oculus)
There’s also this thing: https://fcast.org/
I haven’t tried it, but it looks promising.
Oh, and it’s also MIT licensed, unlike another FUTO project.
Raspberry pi and Kodi
How do you cast with that setup?
Rpi + LineageOS Android TV + SmartTube + Jellyfin + Bluetooth pilot + MiraCast
Oof. This summarizes perfectly what it’s like to give a shit about privacy.
I believe that doing these few things that we can do is a very low price to pay in the fight against a multi-billion dollar corporation
Explain setting up a Raspberry Pi to your aunt and have her tell me it’s a low pricw. Let alone lineage os, Jellyfin, Smart tube, and whatever else was in your list. And that solves just casting and steaming. Now do email, messages, browser tracking and fingerprinting, and everything else in our lives… It a lot. And honestly too much.
Yep, I’m with you on that. I’m actually pretty tech-literate, and even I don’t have the time/energy to bother with all of that shit. That’s a lot of work and maintenance just for a single task that I want to be as idle as possible. Watching videos should just be two clicks, not studying and building and troubleshooting and updating and configuring a dozen things.
Roku supports chromecast (and airplay, if/when needed)
This is not my preferred option (other comment suggestions are more privacy respecting) but just so you have more information, Roku TVs have Miracast built in.
