Anything electric would be dramatically improved. Electric car range, consumer devices like computers and phones would have a huge jump in efficiency, etc. You name it basically.

Sync was my go to reddit client, I'm beyond excited this is out already for Lemmy!!

Depends where you live, Technology Connections did a few episodes on kettles because apparently they're not super common in his neck of the woods.
You're not wrong but there are still drawbacks to Kodi where Jellyfin ends up being better. In my use case, with 5 tvs in the house, 2 are hooked up to Nvidia shield tvs but the other 3 are Chromecast w/ Google TV which have very limited storage unless I want to spend a fortune in hubs for each one to add a USB drive or micro SD.
With kodi installed I would regularly hit the storage limit of the device and have all kinds of weird bugs. Just as an example I had my daughter set up with a kids only account, but account switching would cause Kodi to become unresponsive for anywhere from 30 seconds to having to do a hard reset of the device. Jellyfin gives me the same access to my library with a lighter, more streamlined, persistent interface across devices and with easy and fast profiles. It still allows me to keep a pi as the host so the whole setup is low power (important for me as we're on solar, every watt helps!)
I don't really need the Kodi plugins I used to have if the main purpose of streaming my local content isn't smooth and simple for the family. This is coming from a long time XBMC user, I've been running it since my original modded Xbox in the early 2000s.
There are a few ways but here's my preferred method
There are a few guides around with more detail but it's very straight forward. Also a few guides out there on how to maximize battery life. I get 2.5hrs or so, closer to 3 if I avoid towns.
Here's mine minus my switch
"Wrong," or a matter of preference and willingness to sink time into the project. Your setup sounds great, but it's also easy enough for me to do a simple apk install for Jellyfin and host it on the pi that already has my network shares vs spending the time setting up a database and a local DHCP server etc. etc. Netboot is great but with a fraction of the setup with Jellyfin my needs were met, which was my original point. Also how many end users will take this route? Realistically not many.
Don't get me wrong this was something i'd totally be into a decade ago so I get where you're coming from, love the idea of having the metadata and everything scraped centralized, but what I have works and it's easyyyyyyyy 🤷♂️
Just you, you're seeing the ceiling reflection
Dbrand is awesome for skins! Verticals are a miyoo mini, anbernic rg35xx, and anbernic rg351v.
The reality is that with inflating costs of necessities like food, house, and transport, more people will choose to opt out of streaming services when they jack the prices. Folks will either find alternate forms of content, or find ways of getting the content cheaper (Arrr!!)
We now just wait to see if the increased price is enough to make up for the subscribers they'll lose.
