I do this with older Kindles that I do not sign into. It works great and inexpensive.

Would like to see a full featured phone like the Note 9.

Let's be honest, GM can't make money off owners using this software. They can make their own and have owners pay a subscription like some Tesla owners do now.

I've always worked for smaller private companies because my partner always got screwed working at bigger corporations.

Good. Now let's stop talking about this man daily.

I use Fedora on my T470 with no issues. It might just be Arch. Have you tried other distros? I wish there was a ThinkPad community here.

I also use Fedora on a 2008 Mac Pro with no issues. I'm really surprised how good it is because I've been using Linux since the 90s and never had it just run smoothly on my older hardware.

Pretty much why I still use a Note 9. I've tried switching to other phones but keep going back to this phone.

Expandable storage was great for consumers but not the big corporations. They can charge much more for storage and keep their prices high for that reason.

As long as this phone works, I'll stick with it.

If I was single it would be easier but ya know family 🤷‍♂️

I use FreeTube on my desktop and Newpipe on my GrapheneOS Pixel 7, I don't see any ads or graphic overlays. The family uses AppleTV and the YouTube app is a horrible experience with the amount of ads, even for a 3 minute video. Future project is to look into Pihole or something to block ads at the router level.

Another vote for Fedora. I run it on a 2008 Mac Pro daily just fine. Good luck.

Maybe that new application Ticketbooth with TMDB integration and a Trakt like connection would work. I would love that.

For my household, the price will always be lower than local cable and there is always something to watch! For free live tv, we use a HDhomerun and tv antenna.
