Fedora’s installer is abysmal.

I thought so too. It doesn't have enough options for power users and too many for newcomers. It caters to a middleground that barely exists.

Enabling access to proprietary software should also install audio/video codecs.

The codecs are also the #1 thing that annoy me in Fedora. Because of shitty US patent laws the rest of the world has to suffer.

I tried Jellycon briefly when I started but it's unfortunate that it doesn't integrate into the Kodi UI properly, so there's no way to really use the Kodi interface nicely without casting from the Jellyfin app. It more or less just becomes a playback client for the Jellyfin app. If the Jellyfin app wouldn't be such a disaster when casting I probably would be fine with that.

Might try it again in the future but the Jellyfin app experience is nothing like what Kore or Yatse can do directly with Kodi.

CoreELEC is community maintained and the N2+ still receives the latest builds, my last update was just last month.

However, CoreELEC can be installed on many devices (including some Android TV boxes) that have Amlogic chips. You can see a full list if you to to the download page on the CoreELEC page https://coreelec.org/.

Also, CoreELEC is not Android, it is Linux running only Kodi. If you need anything besides Kodi you might want to look at another solution or have multiple devices.

Kodi still plays via SMB/NFS when configured in direct play mode. Only the metadata is provided via Jellyfin and play progress is synced to Jellyfin.

The Jellyfin plugin is not the most stable piece of software but it gets the job done.

I have been using an Odroid N2+ with CoreELEC installed and the Jellyfin Kodi plugin for years now.

Plays pretty much everything you throw at it, including 4k HDR HFR.

Dolby Vision is supported in CoreELEC but only on some devices.

Pretty easy to do if you use Pipewire, just add a file named ~/.config/pipewire/pipewire.conf.d/10-virtual.conf with the following content:

context.objects = [
    {   factory = adapter
        args = {
            factory.name     = support.null-audio-sink
            node.name        = "Virtual-Sink-1"
            node.description = "Virtual Sink 1"
            media.class      = "Audio/Sink"
            audio.position   = "FL,FR"
        }
    }

    {   factory = adapter
        args = {
            factory.name     = support.null-audio-sink
            node.name        = "Virtual-Sink-2"
            node.description = "Virtual Sink 2"
            media.class      = "Audio/Sink"
            audio.position   = "FL,FR"
        }
    }
]

This will add 2 virtual sinks to your device list after a restart, which you can use in all applications.

After that you can install qpwgraph and add it to autostart: https://flathub.org/apps/org.rncbc.qpwgraph

Now you can drag & drop all connections from your Virtual sinks to you output device (as shown in the image I posted). You can even send it to multiple output devices at the same time.

When you are done hit Ctrl + S to save your patchbay and select Patchbay -> Activated. Now qpwgraph will load your connections every time it starts.

Made the same journey over the years. Rocking a OPNsense DEC740 now and everything works well.

When recording in OBS, I can split the voice and desktop audio and edit them separately.

On my desktop I use 2 virtual audio devices that are linked to my real audio card with qpwgraph in order to split audio between VoIP applications and desktop/game audio.

I have used it for almost 3 years, no serious issues here.

Yes, and I did not downvote you for giving context.

Outside of any ridiculous internet drama, what does this have to do with Horizon?

According to their wikipedia page they are not involved with this game at all.
