LibreELEC Description

LibreELEC is a lightweight Linux distribution that was specifically designed for Kodi and other popular media center hardware. We are passionate about the long-term benefits of collaboration and upstreaming code rather than hoarding patches. We actively participate in other Open Source projects as well as the ecosystem of regular contributors and drive-by contributors. While LibreELEC is still Kodi-oriented, we have been forked to provide the stable JeOS foundation for Plex Embedded and Lakka as well as a variety of single-purpose IoT/maker projects. OpenELEC users will recognize the software output of LibreELEC. Although we run Kodi together, the core values of the projects are different. LibreELEC is governed and managed by a project board made up of active members. This board sets priorities, prioritizes projects, and makes executive decisions. The board ensures that project tasks are distributed among volunteers. LibreELEC is a free and open-source software.

    Sofware is great but community is toxic

    Edited: Jul 13 2023

    Summary: Other forks like CoreELEC do have a much better and friendlier community but have different device/hardware targets.

    When possible avoid LibreELEC because of the toxic community and use a fork when possible.

    Positive: Great piece of software - write to flash and run! All updates (from OS to apps) are included. No extra maintenance needed.

    Negative: The community is very bad and moderators make use of censorship.
