So. I just bought a new telly and to my surprise, not, the OS is rather bad and has very limited amount of apps. Therefore I’ll invest further in either Apple TV or the Firestick. Anyone got any recommendations, tips or hot takes on this? Which has more adds, and can it be blocked via DNS? Further read that Firestick could be jailbreaked, that has my interest 🦊
I wonder how it compares to other Android TV/Google TV devices. I’ve been using the 4K Google TV Chromecast and it’s been running fine, you can enable the “apps only” mode, which hides the home screen with the recommendations from various streaming apps and instead shows the apps screen that has only 2-3 suggested shows and your list of apps. You can select which services to suggest from, but I believe that it always includes Google Play Movies content.
