It’s wild just how much they’re trying to shove AI down our throats.

Incredible. What a shit idea. Anyways, kids, remember: never let your smart devices talk to the internet. We actually love our LG OLED - it’s fantastic hardware. But it has not once, and never will, get the chance to phone home.

But what do you use instead? The onboard apps work well and having two remotes always sucked.

I use an Apple TV with mine. You can control the TV and soundbar from its one small remote.

But then isn’t there a worry about Apple tracking everything?

Everyone is tracking everything anyway, but having been a user of Apple products since 2007, they’ve got what they can on me.

Yeah I guess the better question is which device is best and who’s the better company to allow to track you. If I create an apple TV account with a user name that is a RNG and all fake information, do they even gain anything?

Plus the point is that you can replace the AppleTV with mostly whatever you like (some CEC functionality notwithstanding), and don’t use the TV’s own OS or apps for anything.
