All of that. Lack of ads, more performant etc. Plus (and depending on the device), you can set it up in such a way that you don’t need to sign into your google account, yet still have ability to watch YouTube (SmarTube), install apps (side load plus use the Fdroid TV store … name escapes me at the moment… Flicky I think?).
Even if you need to be signed in for some reason, it’s a smoother experience.
Its just…better. You’ll lose some of the prettiness (for some reason, mine no longer displays backgrounds from upsplash, only solid colours) but its more than worth it.
I also tried Projectivy in the past but I don’t remember why I switched away from it. I think there was a performance bug that was causing it to crash. Both may be good options now
I recently swapped back to FLauncher after using Projectivy for a while. Projectivy uses a lot more resources (cache + RAM) and my TV only has like 4GB of storage.
I’ve been using Flauncher as the replacement dash for years on all my android TVs and Chromecasts

It makes a massive difference and I strongly recommend it
What do you see that makes a difference? Lack of ads or is performance also better?

No ads, better performance, customizable

I can also recommend Wolf Launcher. Been using it for years.
