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.
The Roku secret menu can be found on Roku devices only, and you can adjust what ads you see through it by clicking the home button 5 times, pressing up,right,down,left, and toggling different advertisement settings once the menu opens.Jun 22, 2023
I've had a TCL Roku tv for a while and I love it. There's really only one ad and it's off to the side of the list of apps, so really non-intrusive.
You can actually block adds on roku through a secret menu in the settings
Can you elaborate on this secret method?

Cool, gonna try this later!
Same, but I have that one ad blocked with PiHole so it just an empty rectangular box.
The only thing I don’t like is the crappy remote and the fact that “they” switch my theme.
