Yeah, because everyone is asking for that. They will force ads into everything they can, because Google is an Ad company.

Checkout Projectivy or any other 3rd party launcher on the app store. I installed it on a chromecast and an Nvidia Shield the moment they started showing ads.

Also won’t be buying these anymore in the future. Rather setup a Raspberry Pi and use that.

Yeah I already use Projectivy. It's pretty nice. Thanks.

I'll also check other alternatives. I hope there is way to use the Chromecast protocol with Foss servers.
