About LibreELEC
LibreELEC is a lightweight Linux distribution purpose-built for Kodi on current and popular media center hardware. We believe passionately in the long-term value of collaboration and upstreaming code instead of hoarding patches, and we participate actively with other Open Source projects and the ecosystem of regular and drive-by contributors that surround us. LibreELEC remains Kodi oriented but we too have been forked to provide the stable JeOS base for Plex Embedded, Lakka, and a number of single-purpose IoT and maker projects. The software output of LibreELEC will look familiar to OpenELEC users, on the surface we both run Kodi with much common code, but the projects differ on their core values. LibreELEC is governed by a project board elected from active team members to set project goals, priorities, and take executive decisions. The board ensures project tasks are distributed among volunteers. LibreELEC is free and Open Source software.

"Sofware is great but community is toxic" Edited 2023-07-13
Pros: Great piece of software - write to flash and run! All updates (from OS to apps) are included. No extra maintenance needed.
Cons: The community is very bad and moderators make use of censorship.
Overall: Other forks like CoreELEC do have a much better and friendlier community but have different device/hardware targets.

When possible avoid LibreELEC because of the toxic community and use a fork when possible.
