Doesn’t really solve the issue, I have one but could never find a way to cast YouTube to it and not have ads, since both Vanced and New pipe can’t do it.
Comment on YouTube can't stop showing me AI deepfake ads
Sasha@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 year agoYou can even add android to any tv with a chromecast with google tv, it’s a much nicer OS and runs faster than a lot of smart tv OSs

Yeah slightly annoying that, the default YouTube app should be able to cast to smart tube and you still won’t have ads though. Vanced used to be able to cast to it, before it was killed and revived.
I just don’t cast to it and use the remote.

I don’t recommend the chromecast. It’s incredibly slow and underpowered.
Go for a shield TV, or even a fire stick. Google is selling crap to people, per their usual.

After looking to solve this exact issue I ended up grabbing an Onn 4k streaming box (Google/Android TV) for $20 from Walmart. Not on sale, just full retail is $20, compared to the 4k Chromecast with Google TV at $50 msrp. It’s fast enough and even got better performance out of streaming games through Moonlight than I did from my Steam Link.

Oh cool, that’s actually really useful to know. Thanks!
