Basically title. How does one go about pairing third party services like streaming services to a mini PC so that you can stream it on your dumb / degoogled TV? I don’t really know how TVs work, much less mini PCs, so if anybody could dumb it down for me I’d appreciate it. What does your setup look like, if you have a dumb TV (e.g running kodiTV without network connection)?

    Cool, cool. Do mini PCs come with an OS preinstalled? And what are some good wireless keyboard brands?

      The Beelink ones come with Windows 11 Home; since this is a privacy community, it should be obvious that that’s not all that great for privacy.

      For wireless keyboards; I just got a cheap Bluetooth one with a trackpad because I knew it would be abused.

      This one. I’ve bought several over the years, they’re great and often available at your local electronics store, if you prefer that.

      Logitech makes a nice tv keyboard with integrated trackpad (logi k600), I have one for use with my iPad. There are cheaper options though. Just search for tv keyboard. (I for one love having an integrated trackpad but you could just as easily get a cheap wireless mouse and keyboard.
