I am about to buy one. What do you recommend for a jellyfin setup with it?

So far I got:

Projectivity Launcher
set speed to 0.5 for snappier experience
debloat via adb https://florisse.nl/shield-debloat/

Additional Q: if it can upscale 1080 to 4k, does that mean I don't need my 4k collection anymore? It sounds too good to be true.

in my experience, upscaling tends to either just blur the image or make up details. i recommend keeping the 4K media.

I turned on the video upscaling initially when I got mine, and then turned it off immediately and left it off. I hated it. I would rather watch 1080 native than upscale it.

I hate it on high, but low looks excellent for everything I throw at it, but I had to set my TVs sharpness to zero to get it to play nice, otherwise its an artifacty mess.
