Maybe I got lucky with my Philips oled running Android TV, but it's pretty quick, no ads other than recommended shows from networks, and I can choose which ones. I don't recall it asking about data collection, but whatever the streaming services are doing it already. I like having all the streaming apps built in, then I don't have to manage another device for this. Overall I'm surprisingly happy with it.
Fucking ads on my tv home would be an instant refund, unbelievable.
I got no ads on an lg oled, but it's infuriatingly slow.
Isponsorblock can be run on a local docker machine with the original youtube client to make the experience more bearable.
Mine isn't any slower than the AppleTV I used before. No issues there either. My only wishes would be for it to have parental controls and let me change the screensaver.
