Move the questionable photos to the ‘Hidden’ album and no one will be able to accidentally see them if they happen to view your photos using the Photos apps on the Apple TV. That’s why Apple created the ‘Hidden’ album.

I honestly wish you could choose to search the hidden album. Either search from in it, or check a box in search, unlock biometric, and boom — included.

I’d love to use the hidden album more but it’s a bit neutered once you start really filling it up.

Oh you’re really building a collection over there

This is the way. Or just disable iCloud photos on your appletv entirely, as others have said. I do both.

It's a wonder more people don't know/use this folder. 85% of Apple users just raw dogging the root save location.

What if I have 120,000 photos and 80% is porn and hentai

Then you have a different kind of problem.😬
