Feels like everything is much more a faff to set up, then one bit updates & something or other is longer compatible.
Don't even want to think about the waste it must generate, both of devices & of the hours trying to get things to work whether at the development end or in the home.
at this point i don't understand why people bother with TVs rather than just hooking up an actual normal computer to a big screen and just watching youtube or torrenting media
even the monitors are "smart" now. have you seen Samsung's latest computer monitors?
I even hate how Windows tries to determine which monitors are in use, so if I turn one off it sends everything to the other screen. Just literally be a dumb thing that displays output, please, don't try to think for me.
Because you can get much bigger for cheaper compared to a monitor.
Because size.
Tbh was referring to devices generally. I don't go near televisions today. Too big, too expensive & way too much faff.
