Can you point me to ad free tv please

[–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 28 points 1 year ago (2 children)

SmartTube (formerly SmartTubeNext).

[–] siipale@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Any idea is there anything similar available on LG webOS?

[–] redcalcium@lemmy.institute 5 points 1 year ago

Maybe YouTube WebOS ? It has adblock and sponsorblock supports as well. It can be installed from webos homebrew channel. Check https://www.webosbrew.org/ to get started.

Get any stick that runs android tv or fire TV and install ~~freetubenext~~ smarttubenext. Ads gone.

I guess you're thinking of SmartTube, formerly known as SmartTubeNext?

[–] penquin@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Yup. Let me correct that. Freetube is a PC app that I have installed on my Linux machine. Lol Thank you for the correction :)

Do you have a LG TV? If not I can't help you

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I do, and I'd like a push in the right direction.
