Some years ago around the advent of smart home devices I bought a huge fullhd Hisense tv for cheap. It has zero smart capabilities, and essentially acts as a big second screen for my computer, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

I am scared once it is time to replace it for something more modern I won’t be able to find one without all the smart crap I don’t use and don’t want.

I'm considering wiring my PC up to my TV just to avoid that as well. The only things I'd need would be a long HDMI cable, a DP to HDMI adapter and a bluetooth dongle for my PC to use bluetooth headphones.

KDE connect is miles better than google's crappy phone remote thing anyways, so it would make up for having to use the desktop UI instead of TV apps.

By the way: SmarttubeTV is youtube without ads and with a great UI. It's the only reason why I haven't connected the PC to my TV yet.
