A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Doesn't its home screen hover on the Music app by default, which shows nearly-fullscreen banners that are almost ads?

I don't have one, but in every Apple TV from my school, that's how it starts up

The top banner shows content from whatever app you hover over. You can rearrange your apps.

And I don't use Music on mine much but I'm pretty sure it just shows your own content?

It shows content from whatever app you have highlighted. If you were recently watching Love is Blind on Netflix and you hover over Netflix it will show a love is blind banner. If you were watching pirated stuff from your home server on Infuse then hovering over infuse will show you the most recent thing you opened. They’re not ads, it’s just a “recent” list.
