Yeah, that was my approach, but the forced ads are also on the roku stick :(
Comment on “Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen
CancerMancer@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoDon’t give your TV wifi access, use a separate device to watch stuff (Chromecast, FireTV, Android box, etc…)

Is there anything that’s a better alternative?

I’m looking into alternatives. So far Kodi is the front runner for my use. I have not decided on whether to replace roku units with raspberri pi running kodi or try the jailbreaking roku route.

Some people have mentioned apple TV, for now that at least isn’t riddled with ads. Others have mentioned getting android sticks, but I’m not sure how smooth that process is (or how well they work with remotes).

Wish it had more apps, but Apple TV is pretty solid. With the Steam link app, it’s also good for couch gaming on your pc.
