I guarantee it's loaded with ads and bloatware too. Samsung is the worst for that
Meh
Buy a TV for the panel and that’s it. Only real schmucks are using any of the software on the TV.
I made that mistake when I first bought my LG tv. The ads and bloat got too bad. Luckily I was able to factory reset and then never connected it to the internet. Use a cheap little 4k android streaming box made by Asus.
My TV hasn’t been connected to the internet except for very specific updates I preemptively researched what they included. Otherwise it’s a „dumb TV“.
Their product quality has been decimated from where it was 10 years ago. I actively avoid them when shopping for TVs (and especially appliances) now.
