It's not an OS, it's a client-server application.
Ignoring physical appearances, it presents large libraries nicely and allows you to use your phone or remote instead of needing to fiddle with a laptop.
A few other nice features: can stream different content to multiple devices, users can be given access to specific libraries, and content can be age gated.
- righthand 3y agoThe abstraction between the two is a very minimal difference. My point stands is that as far as how things are controlled is a minimal issue. Streaming to multiple devices, library access, and age gates are nice features but they’re all mostly unnecessary and born out of the anxiety that the laptop connected to an HDMI port isn’t good enough.
