Are there any TV manufacturers out there that do great screens like the lg ones, but without all the rest of the bullshit?

We are in the market for a huge TV soon, and we were looking at the lg oled Evo. However I don't really like rewarding bad behaviour, so if there's any others you can suggest then suggest away...

I rooted my 65" LG TV, and put a pi-hole in front of it.

The TVs are reporting a lot of anger. Add more cameras!

Rather have a TV from 1999. Hope LG goes under.

They'll have to pay for the cellular connection themselves because I'm not gonna enter my wifi password into the tv lol. Been using a pc hooked up to the screen for ages. Screw "smart tv" features, slow and inconvenient as hell.

The inconvenience creared by their greed. You buy a tv, a PC, internet and a netflix sub but you cant watch full (shite) resolution unless you are in a native app.

Piracy is the way forward.

"Gee, boss. Says here 87% of viewers were angry with the TV for spying on them."

[–] J52@lemmy.nz 10 points 3 days ago

So glad I haven't got a LGtv, I'd have to buy a sledgehammer as well.

My LG OLED has never seen an internet connection and intend to keep it that way for a very long time: indefinitely.

This is why I switched to sceptre, they're good quality, low cost, dumb displays.
