I not so quietly axed all of my streaming services last year (Amazon bore the brunt of my dissatisfaction).
IPTV, a self-made Kodi collection, and the local library are all that we use now. Much happier all around, and zero ads.
Nice, I'm running a pi-hole instance on my proxmox server as well, but it is blocking less and less as platforms move to native advertising solutions. Honestly, I'm surprised Netflix didn't do this right from the start.
Whats your preferred method for IPTV?
I have pretty simple needs when it comes to television and just use the officially-supported IPTV Simple Client to watch legitimately free channels, like mainstream CBC, and news networks. Everything else we watch is my from own library, or from the public library.
