I have the Projectivity launcher on my Bravia; greatest thing I’ve ever done to my TV. But it’s still a Google TV first, and I doubt they’ll allow launchers for much longer. I feel like my time is limited with the setup I enjoy; and seeing ads get more invasive elsewhere paired with clamping down on VPNs, it just makes me think it’s just gonna get worse
Perhaps the next YV might need to be a hospital or commercial display.
