Get a mac mini! It’s dirt cheap for what you get. I switched from Windows home PC to mac mini specifically for home media library management. The built-in Photos app in Mac OS is absolutely incredible for photo/video organization. I have TBs of photos and videos accumulated over the years. They are stored on external HDDs (some used to be in Google Drive). With the Photos app you can import all your media w/o copying files to the tiny SSD of mac, it creates small reference files. The Photos app has indexed over 200,000 photo and video files that I have, organized by people names (faces), pet names, locations, dates, etc. It also created tons of auto memories which I is better than anything I could come up with. I don’t think Windows has anything even close to this level of organization and no software purchase needed.

Apple watch is also useful for those who wish to reduce screen time. You can just park your phone when at home and wear a watch around the house so you don’t miss any important calls/txts/e-mails.
