      Stupid question, but am I right in thinking that osmc won’t support streaming services like Netflix/Hulu/Max?

        It’s open source, so you’re right, it won’t. I use mine as a jellyfin box.

          I haven’t followed this guide so can’t comment on how up to date it all is, but looks like there are addons to stream Disney, Netflix, and Prime at least: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/netflix-amazon-video-plex-raspberry-pi/

          Yep, looked more into it. Honestly it sounds great. A dedicated box AND remote with kodi and an integrated app store? I’m intrigued. Will give this os a go soon.
