Yeah, that was my approach, but the forced ads are also on the roku stick :(

    Is there anything that’s a better alternative?

    Some people have mentioned apple TV, for now that at least isn't riddled with ads. Others have mentioned getting android sticks, but I'm not sure how smooth that process is (or how well they work with remotes).
