Honestly, a PC monitor and a separate device connected to it is probably much less bullshit.

Pihole is nice to have regardless of TVs.

Commercial displays are usually very overpriced, although if you can get a good deal that could be nice.

Not sure I’d “trust” any such menu.

I do client ssl verification.
Nobody but me or my household is supposed to access those anyway.
Any failure is a ban (I don’t remember how long for).
I also ban every IP not from my country, adjusting that sometimes if I travel internationally.
It’s much easier when you host stuff only for your devices (my case) and not for the larger public (like this lemmy instance).

After the self induced constipation, they’ll need the poop knife for sure.
