I upgraded to Slimbox 10.7 - here are some things I noticed:
1. Disney Plus still does not want to be installed through playstore - same for hulu - and netflix - those apps seem to require side installs to install them.
2. Disney Plus, HBO Max can't pick up the sound settings properly so you have to turn on Manual Sound and select: AC3 and E-AC3.
(You can select others but it can cause HBO Max to crash.)
3. When you first install the new rom the language is in Russian, changing the language selection to English does not fix all the sub menus,
you need to edit the Vendor and System builds to correctly hold your country and language otherwise some sub menus will come out in Russian.
4. Audio seems slightly lower than normal but that might be due to the "manual" change, still learning about the apps that came installed with the rom.
5. So far amazon prime video, disney+, hbo max, netflix, crunchyroll, hulu, paramount+, all seem to work without glitches except for the two I mentioned earlier.
6. Silent root doesn't give root easily out to apps such as "total commander", even after you go into TC's settings and select root, you have to select super su to get it to give root easier.
7. Drop down notifications work fine, and so do the bars, the clock is also working perfectly, I installed square Home 3 as the UI since I am used to it but the android pie front end works fine.
I will take some screen shots later on and show the score on it but it seems to be downloading pretty quickly now,
was able to install many apps from the app store without issues.
Although I still don't have magisk installed on it so not sure if it would fix anything.
I currently have playstore installed, aptoide, aurora store, fdroid, and will be adding upanddown apps store.

Use as root the preinstalled Magisk.
