It could be some pipewire weirdness on the client, I'm not sure. I'll probably also try using pipewire or pulse on the host and use their built in named pipe support. Maybe that will work better.

Crazy dismissal of Brook there!
Cheap x86 NAS, and replaced the OS with a Ubuntu server + libvirt setup. I do occasionally find it to be slow with jellyfin-mpv-shim , but I am running like 10 other docker containers so one of those could be slowing things.
My folks got FTTP as well and honestly it’s pretty amazing.
Yeah, it's great. I do wish that high upload plans were more affordable (and available). It feels ridiculous to have these super asymmetric plans on a technology that can comfortably do 1gbps up and down.
And yeah, probably not much else you could do other than complain about it.
I'm not sure of the full details, but that has changed recently: https://www.phoronix.com/news/NVIDIA-Ampere-Firmware-Blobs
I don't think HFC is supported at all for the upgrade, should have seen you meant that with the "coax" note. But yeah, that's a huge bummer. I'm one of the lucky few that got FTTP at the end of the initial rollout, but it sucks for everyone else.
For sure. I can tell you it's a very long way off, if ever, unless Microsoft step in and port it themselves.
You just have to apply for a plan for a higher speed than supported by your current tech from what I recall. But you can check your address here: https://www.nbnco.com.au/residential/upgrades/more-fibre
Not all places are being upgraded to be clear.
I'll add that purportedly there is a fee if you don't stick to the higher speed for 12 months charged by NBN, but I haven't seen any ISP that has passed it on.
Some might be using the cloud based game pass, although I haven't tried it myself.
Aliexpress has some reasonably affordable fanless mini PCs. Not quite as low power but you can run a heap of containers on them since they are more powerful and x86 and some of them have multiple ethernet ports which can be useful for router purposes etc
Bandcamp are also one of the few that sell lossless FLAC files, and while I don't really care about listening to FLAC directly, it makes sense as an archive format.
Good to see both AMD and now Nvidia are performing well in Wayland. My experience has been that AMD loses nothing in performance on XWayland for the last few years and nice to see that confirmed.
