The Apple TV is expensive for a reason. It’s a good product with good hardware, which means it has a smooth interface. When something is extremely cheap, YOU ARE THE PRODUCT.
I actually haven’t sat down and used my Apple TV in a while, but I thought there was a carousel ad at the very top of the Home Screen, but maybe I’m thinking of a carousel ad at the top of the Apple TV app on the device, which might make more sense since you use it to purchase and watch movies. It’s still showing ads though, technically.
Ya but thats extremely nitpicky to the point I wouldn’t really take it into account. Don’ get me wrong, I’m appreciative you took the time to share this conjecture but I just don’t see it in the same way. Its not invasive, I honestly have way more criticism reated to their bullshit “Not now as opposed to never” nags, and also the way when you try to turn of shit they want running 24/7 there’s always this annoying worthless disclaimer that trys to talk you out of doing something you have and will do a million times like turnning of location services
Check out NextDNS with this guide if you can’t self-host a Pi-Hole for some reason. NextDNS also has some other advantages, e.g. it works when you aren’t at home or when using a VPN.
Glad I use Apple TVs on LG devices.
I have the same setup. Apple TV’s have ads too, they just aren’t intrusive.

What ads does AppleTV have?
If you put the Apple TV app on the top bar it will put trailers and such for Apple TV + content. That’s the only ads on Apple TV I know of

I must miss them — perhaps because Pi-hole?
