Fair enough, but this setup won’t display an ad on top of my game console feed, like shown above. No guarantee a brand new Android TV won’t start doing this after, could even start doing this after a firmware update.

When I bought my Sony TV from Costco, it let me skip all of the agreements and sign-ups and accounts the day that I bought it. Fast forward a few months later after the return window was over, I turned it on one day and I had to agree to all the different things and it started asking me for an account, if I recall.
I will never buy another smart TV ever in my life.

Its pretty hard to avoid at this point if you want anything larger than a big computer monitor or a refresh rate above 60hz.

Yeah, I’ll probably go with a projector setup next time. Will probably be my luck that they’ll only be selling smart projectors at that point haha

It’s still better. It uses stock android base. So normal play store.
