Seeing this just makes me want a tv that is just a monitor, no crap you just plug in your own thing whatever you want.

Done! Take any Smart TV, factory reset it. And never let it connect to the Internet again .

Buy a commercial display, thats what I do.

Look into commercial monitors like the Samsung BET-H series. I bought a 43” one years ago, plugged an Apple TV into it, and haven’t really thought about the screen ever since.

According to the specs it runs Tizen, but I haven’t had to look at a menu since I got the settings dialed in, i.e. years, so I completely forgot. Don’t even know where the OEM remote is, it works with the HDMI-CEC commands sent by the Apple TV.
