I also tried Projectivy in the past but I don’t remember why I switched away from it. I think there was a performance bug that was causing it to crash. Both may be good options now
I recently swapped back to FLauncher after using Projectivy for a while. Projectivy uses a lot more resources (cache + RAM) and my TV only has like 4GB of storage.
Yes - it replaces the launcher (your home page, I guess you could say), but you can still download apps from the Google App Store and use them (such as Plex).
I have used FLauncher and now use Projectivity, and it is a great way to get rid of all the ads and bloat while keeping the TV fully functional.
just a warning about jelly is that you have to setup your own home host site. plex already comes with one it youre hoping to listen to your music on the go.
what to buy ? something that’s about the sane aize as a firesrick ? want to use a plug in USB thumb drive for media storage for travel and a “player” eg kodi. Dial home to Plex/JF not needed but internet access is
Is there something similar for Linux people like? I have an old computer hooked up for freetube but would like it to be the default input for my Frame TV.

What do you see that makes a difference? Lack of ads or is performance also better?
No ads, better performance, customizable

Blocking ads usually helps performance, most ad networks are trash
Would I be able to watch Plex with this? (Haven’t made the switch to jellyfin yet)

I can also recommend Wolf Launcher. Been using it for years.
i use Flauncher on my Nvidia Shield Pro and have for years
Same. It’s fantastic.

And a key mapper to go back to the launcher instead of the home screen from a remote
