I’m buying a libre computer (le potato) and using it to set up my first pi-hole. I’m very new to this kind of tinkering, so bare with me. I’m hoping to use just one le potato as both my pi-hole and a media center to run Kodi. Is this even possible for one, and two is Kodi what I should be using for pirating hard to access content? Without a VPN? Or is there a better solution available?
By quickly looking at the specs it should work, assuming you will be using Linux. Performance should be fine since Pi-Hole isn’t intensive at all, and barely uses the network.
It really depends on what you want. If you will be using a debrid service and streaming through that, then I would say yes, provided the debrid service has the ‘harder’ content cached. If they don’t, then you will have to switch to torrenting, and then playing the media from within Kodi, assuming you can find the correct torrents. A VPN would be required if there are laws forbidding the distribution of copyrighted material.
I appreciate the help, I’ll think on it a little more to decide if I should try to get a second SBC. Just from my little experience shopping for them, I can tell they’re tough to get for MSRP. So I don’t really want to deprive someone if I really don’t need it.
