I have an LG TV purchased about 3 years ago. It had a bunch of "AI" features from day one, but mostly related to improving the picture quality dynamically based on what's on the screen. I disabled all of that stuff, so I guess I'll be disabling this too.

The LG software is horrible on this TV. Great picture quality, but I would never recommend an LG TV just because of the software.

No TV manufacturer is capable of writing high quality software. Somewhat surprisingly they also suck at UI/UX design.

I'd love for someone to mention a single TV manufacturer who provides a good, not amazing, just good, smart TV experience.

It's crazy to read this because I came from a Samsung TV/Display - LG Software is so much better than that!

Really wish we'd get dumb displays with these great panels :(

We also have a Samsung TV, and I much prefer the Samsung software over the LG. Neither is great though.

So far nothing prevents you from spending $100 to set up LibreElec on an RPi and leave the TV offline and dumb.

Does that work with the DRM from streaming apps, though? Can you get 4K and atmos with Netflix or Disney+ with that hardware? And an easy remote and UI?

		Elementum to the rescue, all atmos/4k you can find.

This is what I do, but… Kodi sure seems like it is on the downhill. Multiple things don’t work for me like HDR for one example.

I’m looking to see what I would get or lose with Apple TV or some Plex/JellyFin/other player with less baggage.
