I don’t think of them as ads. I think of them as tips on what to watch next. Then I go and download it on plex.

Looks like the old Android TV interface, pre Oreo.

Talk to me like I’m 5 and tell me how to do this.

Somehow installing button mapper makes my volume decrease or increase by just 1 point on my tv remote at every press even if i hold it long. So disabled it. Any solution for this problem?

I use ATV launcher as well. I could not stand the stock launcher after my android 9 update on my mi box s

Idk, I like my YouTube recommendations, and "some" other apps recommendations.. This just looks like an old android box showing me my apps.. Js

Welcome to the Club, granted yours is different looking than my setup, but still ad-free nonetheless.

Mmm don't like the look of it, although I haven't had experienced this as feature, maybe this a region related issue

Clean! Does the launcher auto launch on startup? Not totally familiar with firetv launchers

Does it show classic android apps or do you still need sideload launcher for those?

You can just set “apps only mode” from account setting if you only want to list installed apps without contect recommendation. No need to install another launcher

I understand hating ads, especially on a device you purchased that probably did not have them as part of the feature set. Maybe your purchased it because there were no ads.

Rarely advertising does make itself useful. This weekend an ad came up with a show (Khumba on YouTube) that was perfect for my daughter. And I can promise you I would not have known about it otherwise.

Some peolle really like to ruin their experience by using all sorts of apps to hide an ad or two. Sometimes people use far inferior tehnology just to see unrelated ads. E-hippies
