Never actually read Marcus Aurelius starter pack

Element X is the new version of Element. There’s currently 2 versions available on the store/fdroid since X is in beta.

The fdroid versions of Element X and Schildichat X both seemed to require me installing and setting up nfty to get notifications working.

I’m looking forward to the release of paralives (this year hopefully). Been watching the development for a few years, seems like the devs care about the project.

From the dev videos, the main difference between Inzoi and Paralives is the personality and art design of both the world and the sims. Inzoi tries too hard to be realistic and loses all quirkiness and fun that came with the Sims. The animations and interactions in paralives are very well designed.

Wow thanks for such a thorough answer!

It seems like as of right now meshtastic devices don’t have the ability to finely control LEDs/button actions to work for my use case. Which is a shame since I was hoping I could just buy a meshtastic device that has some programmable buttons inside a pre-built enclosure.

Seems like I’ll have to go down a more advanced route of getting a microcontroller, wiring up buttons and LEDs and getting a custom built enclosure.

Seems like I could get something simple like this heltec device, which is arduino compatible so I could program the buttons and LEDs, then just find/make a case.

It’s kodi I’m not big on, it works fine but the jellyfin addon isn’t fantastic for me, it frequently loses connection when using NFS, if not using NFS, I find it very slow to load media.

The Vero.

It’s the only open source offering, works great with 4k and HDR. Does use OSMC which I’m not a fan of but it works.
