Amusingly the old Android TV Chromecast (or whatever stupid name they gave it) was actually one of the better boxes for customisability. You could side-load apps so could install a custom (ad-free) launcher and 3rd-party clients like smarttube. You couldn’t really get much better than that without running something like a proper Linux OS on a RPi.
Hoping this one will be similarly OK for tinkering (not that I need a replacement any time soon!)
