Dunno if all the described changes have gone wide yet, but I've not had an ad on my Roku since I set up my pi hole. https://pi-hole.net/
IIRC I hid/disabled the recommendations row through the Roku settings.
first google tv, now roku. I hope fire tv stick home screen is still free of this home page with ads
Wait what? I tried a fire stick a few years ago and it was plastered with ads worse than anything. Even with the pfblocker ad blocker that kept the Roku clean.
Yeah so Kodi right, what are your thoughts?
My thoughts: just firewall the shit out of your tv, and change the def launcher.
