Any good debloated TVs? (lemmy.world)

Hi there!

So I am looking to buy a new TV, but the latest smart-TVs all seem to be very bloated with ads and other ridiculous and unnecessary features. I know very little about TVs, and therefore wondering if anyone has any tips on some good TVs that include as little bloat as possible.

Thanks for any recommendations or tips!

The Apple TV’s only real competition is the nVidia Shield which is actually more expensive.

Unfortunately the majority of these devices are subsidized by ads and data gathering and most people care more about price than experience.

Shield has ads now, too. Even though I blocked the domains, it just keeps showing the same ads from when I first installed it. I am so sick of them.
