Hey guys, so I moved recently and started tipping my toes in self-hosting, currently managed to set up Pihole and Jellyfin.
I’m thinking of buying a TV to start enjoying all these cool services over my living room. The thing is, I’m pretty much an absolute beginner, and I’m not sure if there is something I should be aware of when buying a TV.
Since it is a fairly big spend, I would really hate to be locked out of it because of some greedy corporate garbage or something, especially since I would use it only for self-hosting, and I am aware TVs are particularly messy when it comes to this (never have bought one in my life). Could you guys help this lost kid?
I don’t know if this applies to you or not, but if you are like me, and I believe around 10% of the population, stay away from PWM as it will give you big migraines. But that you can only know if you are sensitive to it by encountering one of those screens. If you own a pretty recent mobile phone with OLED or AMOLED, chances are they use PWM and if you are fine with them, you should be ok. But always best to make sure. They never really advertise this so if you can go to a physical store to see the screen or look around the internet before buying that helps.
