That's why I love projectors, they almost never have "smart" features built in. A Raspberry Pi can serve as a great HTPC running FOSS software like Kodi, connecting to a local, self-hosted Jellyfin server full of pirated content.

I don't really get the whole projectors thing when you easily just the do same thing for a TV that's offline 😆

Sure, that's another option, but I would have bought a projector anyway, and the fact that they haven't been hit by enshittification is a nice bonus on top

Problem with projectors is they don't work very well in bright spaces
