im using a chromecast right now and i want a similar experience to that, just more privacy friendly

although i have set up a google account just for my chromecast with its own email, it still doesn’t feel like its enough

    my brother actually wants an apple tv and/or my family’s tv needs a tv box just in general so that could work

    and i don’t really care that streaming serviced collect my data (i mean i would like them to not but im “fine” with it)

    i thought that sideloading apps like smarttube on apple tvs was pretty hard, and thats mainly why i didn’t really want one, but if i can use something like smarttube then maybe ill give it a try

      You have to take some extra steps, it’s not just “click button -> success”, but it’s not too hard.

      Perhaps you’re the target audience for the many unofficial smarttube apps in the tvOS store.
