I wish. Love my TCL Roku TV but I fucking hate seeing an ad on the right side of the home page.

Pi Hole is going to be your best option, but it's a bit of an ordeal to get set up.

Or, if you can access the advanced settings, just assign an adblocker DNS.

Honestly, just look for a SFF pc with an i3 or something off eBay and just use that.

Works great using firefox and ublock origin for youtube and Hulu.

This. I use an older laptop to watch stuff on TV if I want to.

But seriously, it's always the same fucking ads and I hate how they just cut right in the middle of a scene, or even the middle of a sentence/word

At least in the olden days before streaming there were designated commercial breaks...

Wait what are you watching where they plop ads in the middle of scenes?

It's not bad for free, but gets annoying when ads pop up mid-sentence all the damn time.

Best way to do it is to put CFW on your router that supports adblocking.

Pluto is my go-to "I just want something on in the background" app. MST3K and Rifftrix alone makes it worth using.

Whoa, does pihole actually work on smart TV streaming apps? I'm seeing some mixed info on reddit. Looks like it doesn't work for youtube without some tinkering, what about other apps?
