KDE's Android TV alternative, Plasma Bigscreen, rises from the dead with a better UI

Another KDE project, Plasma Bigscreen, is back from the dead with a much better UI spread across the entire shell.

Not exactly self-hosted but I know many jellyfinners here would cherish this as well.

    I’m wondering what I’ve done wrong with KDE Connect as I could never get it working on any device across 3 different smartphones

      Sadly the distributions I tried did not open the required port(s) on the built-in firewall (Bazzite and CachyOS, for two).

      I would suggest to disable any firewall and check if you can pair.

        You are probably correct that the firewall is the culprit. Good suggestion.

        I realize disabling the firewall for testing is OK, but I recommend looking up what it takes to open the ports or app in the firewall instead. I’ve spent my whole career running into and fixing instances where techs disabled firewalls for “testing” and never re-enabled them.
