I use Linux Mint, mostly because I’m familiar with it. If I was to redo it, I would likely just run Debian.

Dunno if it’s been delisted since, but I installed it on all my Rokus and Roku TVs a few weeks back without issue.

NoMachine has Android and Windows clients.

I also try and ignore energy costs and prevent ewaste: my home server is my three builds back gaming PC with a lower power GPU shoved into it. Whenever I build a new main gaming PC my old one becomes my wife’s gaming PC, and her old PC is rebuilt into the home server.

Assuming you have a PC, come join us on the Ephinea PSOBB server: https://ephinea.pioneer2.net/

Phantasy Star Online (PSO). I have thousands of hours in that game across Dreamcast, GameCube and PC over the decades and I’m still not tired of it. It absolutely nailed the loot system and you’re always looking to get another rare box drop. BlueBurst on PC still has multiple active and populated servers, but I feel like it doesn’t get much discussion in gaming communities in general despite being one of the pioneers of online gaming on consoles.
