Note about the second bullet: Not all TCL TVs are Google TV, which can be switched to Protectivity - Roku TVs at this point, as far as I know, cannot disable ads if connected to the Internet.

I’m struggling heavily to find that OS to learn more about it (literally just got a google tcl tv delivered today, as my old one died last week), can you provide a link of some variety?

I was very heartened to find out that it’s just big android, so there’s likely a lot that can be done with it (but I got it to be dumb).

Sorry, do you mean a link to a Roku TV? Assuming you mean a link to Projectivity, here's a link:

You can scroll to the bottom - basically you should just be able to enable installation from third party sources in your Google TV android options, and install the APK. I don't have Google TV, but worked fine on Android TV. I forget if you have to fiddle with any other settings to get it to boot into Projectivity, or if you just change the launcher app in settings.

Nope, this is the info I was looking for, thanks :)
