That sounds entirely reasonable.

I'm constantly amazed that this is a hard subject for people. As the golden rule says:

"I'm not going to reach into your pants, without an invitation. And I prefer no one reach into my pants, because we barely know each-other. Whatever someone tells me is in their pants, I'll take their word for it, as long as they haven't flashed me in public. Also, shitting in practically transparent stalls is awful for everyone, and showering with strangers sucks. Let's all just do less of both."

There's been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.

Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.

I don't know enough about it to confidently say they're going to lose all their money

It happened to my relative. They didn't lose everything, but they lost enough that they're shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.

Plausible explanation.

This was really helpful. Thank you.

I remember those days, as well!

I'm with you.

Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn't the only way to create a discovery algorithm.

I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.

I'm partial to RetroPi or Batocera, so I end up with a retro game console and media player in one. This build works with anything compatible with Kodi. Excellent for home media, but paid and free streaming services are hit and miss.

There's also builds of Android Open Source Protect for Raspberry Pi, which have much better support for streaming apps, since anything that works on an Android Phone works, as long as the streaming service developer hasn't done anything stupid.

Edit: A warning though - Android on Raspberry Pi is still very new. Think Alpha/Beta test. I think that Android on ARM chips, in general, is new. It'll get good, but your mileage may vary, for now.
