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 ๐ŸฆŠ

I mean to me Chromecast/Google TV is the obvious best choice of all of these.

It just lets you literally cast all the apps from your phone right to the TV? I'm not really sure why you would be so against it.
