    That does not look better than project ivy launcher imho.

    From the 100 reasons to choose this over android tv, subjective thing like “better UI” is not one.

    Does it support SmartTube? Jellyfin? Refresh rate and resolution changing based on signal? Bitstream? Codecs? Exo player is a great default player used by many apps, what’s this ones alternative?

      Is mostly a interface for linux distros, so AndroidTV apps won’t work.

      Jellyfin Media Player (desktop app) have a TV UI, which kinda woks, on the article mentions an YouTube app called VacuumTube.

      Is more an alternative for DIY home theater PC (like Kodi) than AndroidTV

        Yeah, I understood, but the OP made it sound like something to replace Android TV.

        I wish the revive does well and we’ll have a proper alternative, but the main thing they have to beat is what something like Android TV on Shield provides - otherwise it’ll just be a thing to tinker with, not a replacement.
