speaking of alternatives, what brand do people hate that actually has a decent alternative? (lemmy.ml)

I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don't like but has an alternative?

I did use pihole to block it. Sadly, not everyone have the technical knowledge to do so.

That’s why I’d recommend apple products even though they’re not that great.

Aside from firmware updates, I don't know why anyone uses smart tv apps. 99% of the time they are terrible and buggy. Get an apple tv or shield, or even a fire stick. I'd love to find some kind of private tv device (at least the device itself, I know the apps are the data siphons) if anyone has suggestions.
