Here could some European company that already makes tv to step in and create something good, with no ads, and even better if they promise to open the sourcecode, bootloader etc... Something like Philips for example. But I guess they are too busy making lightbulbs to notice that they could fill that gap on the TV market space.
- deafpolygon 7mo agoeuropean TVs aren’t that much better
- erremerre 7mo agoExactly that is my point. They could be. There is no incentive to buy Philips over any chinese brand if they all are going to spy. But it could be different. Like how Oneplus allowed Cyanogen on their devices.
- bzzzt 7mo agoThere are no real European TVs anymore. The Philips TV brand is Chinese owned for more than a decade now.
- gh02t 7mo agoPhilips has made "smart" TVs for years, including OLEDs, and they're more or less Android TVs like most other manufacturers. So I wouldn't hold your breath for them.
- erremerre 7mo agoThat is what I meant, they are no different from any other brand. But they could be. They could guarantee no enshitification, or an open platform.
