Any adblocks x smart TV?
SmartTube if it’s an Android TV.
Download and install the APK through Downloader app or USB, only takes a few mins following instructions.
Devs keep it very regularly up to date. SponsorBlock included. Many excellent additional features making it way better at being YouTube than the YouTube app could ever be.
That’s not the official site. It has an old version (July 2024) and the file might contain malware. You can safely download the latest version from GitHub and find their updated guide there.
If you don’t want to use Github, you can use the site they have linked to which is https://smarttubeapp.github.io/
Don’t connect the TV to the internet. Buy a Shield or AppleTV.

Yeah. Unfortunately. This sounds far too likely.
Lol I’ve actually done this and muted it too
The only ads Ive watched in the past year were ads from flex seal and tim henson, and those were technically just videos.
If ads were like that I wouldnt mind them as much
Not for long…
Cough cough Sony patentI’m gonna patent a robot that uses Deepseek to identify forece-response ads on the telly, and it automatically responds to the ad in lieu of the human.
Let the arms race commence. I’ve got all day.
My goal is to never buy anything that they ad. I can’t always avoid it, but i largely do.
