Own a Roku TV or streaming device? You're about to see a lot more ads on your home screen - eviltoast

Ugh. Roku was one of the platforms with fewer ads.

  • Roku will be adding more ads to the home screens of its devices and TVs in the near future.
  • The ads will be interactive and ‘shoppable’ and will cover a range of industries, including restaurants and cars.
  • Roku already has a significant amount of ads on its home screen, and it is unclear if users will be able to change their preferences for the new ads.

    Actually…that’s the sticking point at my house. I’m ok with mouse keyboard, but my wife and kids are not.

    Still trying to find a remote that will suit that use case.
