    It there any TV brand that we can still buy?

    I’m not really sure how I will be able to setup TV or something that allows watching TV at this point.

      You can use androidtv with adb and universal android debloater next gen to get rid of telemetry. Hisense is a decent choice. It’s also possible to completely uninstall launchers with ads and replace them with flauncher which loads almost instantly
