It’s not the ads on the TV that makes me yearn to replace it with a computer monitor and a Raspberry pi (although my wife and I will probably compromise on apple thingy)<p>It’s the controllability with kids. No you can’t watch hours of weird YouTube dolls videos.<p>And no, when we just want to watch a BBC cartoon, why does everything suggest “new movies you ight want to buy” - that’s advertising of a form that simply says “a manager wants to juice their revenue this quarter and is willing to ignore what customers care about to do it”
Personally, I'm hoping that by the time my existing Vizio TV (once excellent, now infested with crapware apps because I was stupid enough to let it connect to wifi) finally dies, XR headset tech is light and comfortable enough that I can just skip buying a new TV entirely.
