This makes me make goddamm sure 1 don't buy a smart tv. Two definitely a Roku one.
Good luck finding an affordable "dumb" TV. They're just computer monitors and they cost a hell of a lot more at TV size than most people are able to spend. The smart TVs are so cheap because they are subsidized by the shit vendors paying the manufacturer to load their malware in front of your eyes.
Then I will not buy one I will spend whatever it is to continue using a dumb tv.
Is there anyone selling high quality dumb TV's though?
Don't about hi quality but old console tv still exist and you can convert hdmi to them. My wife uses one in our bedroom.
