I love widgets! Ugly as they are, I love to have a bunch of info at a glance, and most act like shortcuts too. I’m still rebuilding since everything got deleted, but from memory, I got widgets for gmail, whatsapp, todoist, keep, a few music and podcast players, tv time (a tv show episode tracker), toggl, feedly, and something google made called action blocks that let you make button widgets that run predefined actions with google assistant. And I’m sure I’m forgetting at least a handful.
Yeah, power consumption is never talked about enough when talking about that type of hardware. I do have an old PC I could use as a server, but I don’t need more heating at home. Mini-PCs are cool, but how cool are they?
But anyway, I haven’t been able to buy a RPi at decent price in years, so 🤷🏻♂️
