A new UN report finds that humanity is generating 137 billion pounds of TVs, smartphones, and other e-waste a year—and recycling less than a quarter of it.
The one feature I like about the smart TV is support for DLNA
Yes, a nice feature that even early “smart” TVs had. It could have stopped at that and everyone would have been happy.
But today’s smart TV’s loaded with ads; unnecessary bloat; “shortcuts” to services you have no intention of ever using; massive user tracking; and complicated firmware/software that can render your TV useless, have become the real problems. It’s the enshittification of hardware that really was just fine being “dumb”.

Yup. I may end up getting a projector because the TV space has too much nonsense.
Just make sure it’s not a “smart” projector! LOL
