Smart TVs are all well and good, but when ad-focused update lobotomized my new-ish Android TV, we hit a problem.

    You seem to be under the impression that Roku and Chromecast don’t do the exact same things.

    There is no good solution because connecting a Pi or something is not as good as modern TVs without an AV1 decoder and it also doesn’t have a good remote interface as far as I know.

      I went down the Pi 4B with Kodi path. It wasn’t very reliable.

      I ended up with an Amazon firestick. Even using Kodi (and smarttube) on that works faster and more reliably.

      But then I have the Amazon firestick nosing around in everything I do lol. But I did disconnect my TV from the internet…
