This program is a client for the very solid Tvheadend TV streaming server. Tvheadend supports pretty much any source you can think of, but is a little more complicated to setup.

Tvheadend is a selfhosted service meant to be run on your own server with your own TV dongles / IPTV channels / etc.

If you only want to watch TV on your PC, doing so with something like Kodi is probably a better idea, as Kodi also supports USB tuners and is simpler to setup (doesn’t require a separate server).

I really like Pop!_OS, AFAIK it doesn’t have any telemetry. It’s basically a Ubuntu fork but without the stupid Ubuntu stuff, and they’re currently even working on their own Desktop Environment.

Magic Earth (while not FOSS, it’s privacy oriented though) can do this.

There’s also Transportr, but AFAIK it’s been unmaintained for quite a while now, so it may not work / stop working soon.

Push Notifications don’t really exist for Lemmy yet, as they aren’t supported in the backend currently:

As someone else here said, your best bet is probably monitoring your Inbox RSS feed.

+1 on OnlyOffice, it has 1:1 formatting compatibility with Microsoft Office. Unlike LibreOffice, it doesn’t have to translate documents between odt and docx in the background.

In the same vein, OnlyOffice has poor compatibility with odt files etc.

Not OP, but this instantly made me think of the worst-case scenario PDFs I stumbled upon on Lemmy recently.
