Jonas Vautherin<p>@DarkWraithLord@mastodon.social <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/stremio" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>stremio</span></a> can cast in UI. In CLI I like <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/catt" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>catt</span></a>, I used to use <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/mkchromecast" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>mkchromecast</span></a>, I sometimes go from python directly with <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/pychromecast" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pychromecast</span></a>, and recently I&#39;ve been trying <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/castr" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>castr</span></a>.</p><p>Also from Chromium you can cast, but I use <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/firefox" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>firefox</span></a> , so... :-)</p>
