Shopping for a laptop as a Linux user:

    The tv thing is the most insane. Like I grew up used to knowing phones are all tapped and computers too. But I pay to not have ads on tv but my tv itself has ads. And I can run a Linux computer and we’re getting somewhere with spyware and ad free phones even if it’s not yet where I need to switch, but tv, fucking hell

      AFAIK, you can flash a de-googled version of Android TV on some devices, look up LineageOS’ website.
