Are there any decent TV Boxes out there? Nvidia shield is what I use now, but I had to switch to a 3rd party launcher to avoid recommendations. I have a feeling I may end up with a PC hooked up to my TV at some point in the future.
Well, you have one of my recommendations of a Shield with a 3rd party launcher lol. My other would be an Apple TV.
You can get an On box at Walmart for like $25 and it doesn't have ads. It has recommendations for services you have (ie watch this next on Netflix) but you can turn them off.
Maybe it is because I have a pihole but I never notice the recommendations. I remapped the Netflix button to plex and barley spend any time on the launcher
