TV recommendations? (lemmy.today)

The time has come for me to get a new TV. I've been dreading this because I keep hearing how shit modern smart TV's are with the ad situation.

Anyone got any recommendations? Even the best of the bad would be a step up from nothing.

I should also note: I'm not looking for any kind of complicated self hosted thing. This needs to be usable by your grandma. ๐Ÿ˜„

You're welcome! Yeah, RTings is incredible. While I'm here, I'd also recommend notebookcheck.net for anything they happen to review (which is more than laptops these days).

One caveat: like another user said, I don't know which TVs have this option, and there is no guarantee it will stay, unless you turn auto updates off somehow. YMMV.
