first of all i wanna say i have already tried a linux box with plasma bigscreen and its unfortunately not my thing

SO something that’s easy to use (like an android box) and has support for youtube adblocking (and maybe even sponsorblock). I’m not looking to use a little keyboard controller to navigate a desktop ui, i would like to use a standard enough remote and navigate something that was made for a tv

i know this is like impossible and it doesn’t need to be crazy private, just something that doesn’t take all of my yummy data :)

thank guy

    Any of the devices on the Slimbox website

    I’m currently using a Tanix W2 running Slimbox with Projectivity Launcher and SmartTube.

    I’m not sure how long I have that box, maybe about 5 or 6 months. But before that I had another with the same setup for a good few years and without any issues.

    There are plenty of devices on that site that with (obviously) a Slimbox version for them, including Xiaomi Tv Stick and other Google TV devices.

    I’m not sure how Slimbox manages the DRM (widevine) on those devices, but widevine doesn’t bother me as I don’t use any of the apps that require it.
