Hi all I use my RPi4 as a node-red server attached to my 4k TV and am wondering which Linux distribution I am installing when I install MyCroft BigScreen.

Hello jclark58,
the rpi4 img is based on KDE Neon, which is based on Ubuntu LTS.

Thanks so not Raspbian. Im not sure what implications this has. Can I still run node-red and other raspberry specific services like camera and GPIO, or does the Rpi become dedicated to this application?

He didnt ask for the download, just what the OS is based on.
KDE Neon is based on Ubuntu, yet you dont find it on ubuntu.com…
