Some telemetry is blocked during startup, although it is incomplete [1] (Perhaps I was a bit over-optimistic when I said a pihole was not required).
Custom CA certs are possible, which people on older models have been using to work around issues stemming from the X3 cert expiry [2].

Tried using RPiPlay on Pi 3B+, Avahi issues
1 project | /r/linuxquestions | 23 Jan 2023

After following all the instruction on the RPiPlay github, I seem to have been able to build RPiPlay on my Pi. This is what I did:
Using PiKVM to remote access a mobile device (Android/iPhone etc.)

I would be a dream if PiKVM can implement an AirPlay mirroring server like https://github.com/FD-/RPiPlay.

Nice, I’d love to install software such as rpiplay [0] to mirror my iOS device, also would be nice to maybe gain some kind of low-latency wireless Linux-compatible screen share server.
