Has anybody found a way of forcing the Home screen to display what they want, i.e. without all the unwanted clutter?
I keep deleting all 400 channels of the Samsung (or is it Rakuten?) TV channels which I have no intention of ever watching. Then, a week or so later I have to repeat the process all over again as they reappear.
Then there are those infuriating apps, such as Disney +, Spotify, Netflix, Samsung Health and You Tube, which is unwatchable when you can't install an ad blocker. I once managed to delete them, but I have absolutely no idea how I did it, because they're now all back on the Home screen and it's impossible to get rid of them. It's no good going into the App Manager, because they don't even appear in there.
Then there are the infuriating HDMI inputs. You get just one chance to move their position, and that is when you first set them up (which is itself an incredibly annoying process). After that you're stuck with them wherever they are.
Finally, there is that warning that the TV can't connect to the 'smart' remote control. No Samsung, it can't and it never will, because I've taken the batteries out of the horrible thing and it's lying in the bottom of a drawer somewhere. Why is there no way of killing it?
