It really is. I've been using an Nvidia Shield for my living room TV. All of a sudden this week it showed a Lidl ad right there on the homescreen. Those fuckers. Replacement is on its way, fuck Nvidia.
I had no idea, on both counts: that Google weedled its way in there too, and that a different launcher was even an option. I will look into that, thanks!
They didn't weedle they're way in, it's a Google OS haha
oh 🤭
Yeh productivity is so clean after google and amazon etc. Is your interface not theirs.
I mean, yes fuck nvidia for sure, but I think those ads are via the googs. They have ramped up lately for sure.
In either case, I ignore them for now as I click into the jellyfin interface and enjoy my library.
All of a sudden this happened years ago.
