I got an ad like the a month ago, made me start looking at alternatives. I haven't found one besides Apple TV that supports all the streaming services, is made for a TV, and doesn't have worse ads. I could handle content ads for streaming services I didn't have, but just straight TV commercials on my hopepage? Get fucked Google.

We have an Android TV stick that show posters of films available for purchase below applications and that's the only ad. The stick also somehow blocks Google banner ads on all apps. The catch's bad responsiveness and unstable comnectivity. And no OS updates for over a year. https://www.mi.com/global/product/mi-tv-stick/specs
