That... is a really shitty meme that misses the point?

If you actually look at what the overlay exposes, the User still has the ability to pick specific channels, control volume, power, etc. All they really lose are the DVR (good example) and all of the user friendly stuff related to tv guides and the like (bad example).

I assume this is just AI engagement farming bullshit that someone fell for and posted to lemmy but... I would actually say it would make more sense if the overlay were almost inverted.

You also lose the ability to access the TV settings, leaving you stuck on the default settings, which is one of the reasons why most people root their phones.
