@sdetweil
I want to upgrade my Magic Mirror from a Pi 3 to the new Pi 5 because my old one takes almost an hour to boot — it’s basically dead already.

A lot of the modules I use don’t really get updates anymore.
Do you think I could run into serious problems if I reinstall all of them on the new Pi 5?

When I set everything up last time, I had issues with almost every module because of Node.js versions and similar things.

I’m not a coder, so I’m not really able to tweak the modules myself to fix compatibility issues.

I have a unit with a 3B+ and I’m having much of the same issue. It seems to just hang and many modules are no longer updating.
