I haven't done a bunch with it. I set it up locally on an old laptop, installed the app on my TV and on the other machines throughout the house. It works great when I use it. I stream a lot of content outside of it so I don't use it all the time but the interface I really liked. It's fluid even running the server on a laptop that would struggle to run a zoom call.
Believe I set it up with pop-os, but it could be mint. I haven't had to touch it in months so I honestly wouldn't know without going to it. I leave a RustDesk connection on it from my phone if I ever need to get to it.
