    Genuinely zero idea how people use TVs on their own, with wi-fi connected, and no HTPC. Not only is it mostly spyware, it’s a horrendous experience too.

    Just get a tiny pc with a wireless keyboard + touchpad combo, and use that instead of a Smart TV’s built-in OS. More secure, more private, more feature-rich, more convenient. If you watch TV (I can’t see why anyone would), then you can even watch that online.

      I can’t stand “smart” TVs. I’d choose a Raspberry Pi and huge monitor over one any day

      Except maybe the Nvidia Shield; it’s genuinely pretty good. I have Retroarch installed on it, but I don’t use it much (no monitor for it lol).
