    I just disconnected my smart TV from the internet. Nice and dumb.

      Still slow UI.
      If only signage displays would have the fidelity of a regular OLED consumer without the business-usage tax on top.

        What do you use the UI for? I just turn my TV on and off. No user interface needed. Only a power button on the remote.

          Even switching to other stuff right after the boot (because the power-on can’t be called a simple power-on anymore) the tv is slow.
          I recently had the pleasure of interacting with a TV from ~2017 or 2018. God was it slow. Especially loading native apps (Samsung 50"-ish TV)

          I like my chromecast. At least that was properly specced. Now if only HDMI and CEC would work like I’d like to :|
