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!

I can recommend the Apple TV. Even the android TV ones have ads now (looking at you shield tv!).

I more meant along the lines of building an HTPC then putting Android on it, so that wouldn't have ads. But yeah an Apple TV is definitely an easier plug-and-play solution. I am more of a DIY type of person.
