Fwiw - I have both an LG C2 and a newer Samsung QLED. Neither have ever been connected to the internet, never pester me to connect, and the both turn on right to to my Apple TV

My LG C2 which has never been connected to wifi starts up in maybe 3s. Boots right into my Applw TV and I never have to see LGs software

An Analogue Pocket is $20 more and an FPGBC is half the price. Ignore this garbage.

For me Nocturn is worse but still decent. The animation doesnt feel as good and the characters are pretty meh. Im hoping the return of Alucard will remedy that.

My personal setup for 4 rooms worth of speakers is a rpi with a Hifiberry hat running debian with Mopidy. I use the Iris plugin for a front end and i mount my music directory via cifs on each pi

Tetris: Rosey Retrospective is legitimately my favorite version of tetris

+1 for cosmos

I have one of these and built a few for my friends. Honestly a fantastic system. I find myself playing it way more than my Analogue Pocket.
If you’re not a fan of their bootlogo heres an unofficial fw with the original gb/gbc bootlogo (its in the patched_fw directory)

Or over 2x the price of an FPGBC

Glad I stumbled on this thread, i had the same problem. Protip if youre not using a config file and using env vars instead you can use
INVIDIOUS_DOMAIN and INVIDIOUS_EXTERNAL_PORT instead. Works great for docker

I got with Ancient Egyptian Deities for everything. (See: my username).

I tried Umbrel and i hated it. I switched to Cosmos and its great

No all the apps are running through docker. Some apps run in docker with vnc

Cosmos is my favorite. Its a bit newer, but it gets in my way less than Casa or Umbrel

Thanks for this write up! I was looking for something to replace volumio/hifiberryos and mopidy with Iris is a great combo. I couldn’t get the subsonic plugin working too well (the plugin seems a big half baked and the maintainer doesn’t used anymore), but the local plugin works fine over smb.
