we had to ditch our old broken dumb tv and buy a smart one and I'm losing my mind because apparently you can't fuck with webOs that much. like you can install things like kodi but whatever, but you have to root it(?) which I'm not risking because it voids any warranty

it doesn't even have vlc media player

#at least with firesticks you used to be able to have a custom launcher. you still can but I think you can't use it as default anymore #and it has vlc.#pointless microblogging #I really really just want to connect my laptop to it and use that. nothing more #the hdmi cable is short and I don't think audio works. haven't tried yet #but even jut connect the firestick to use vlc to access the public folder would be ok #but maybe something like miracast works with my laptop so I don't have to use cables?#I heard miracast isnt really supported on linux but IDK I'll check... later... it's late...#*update. I forgor it's not hdmi. laptop doesn' have it. it's uh vgi? doesn't have audio a separate jack is needed. but tv doesn't have #anything other than hdmi and one usb
