I am really not happy with Google shoving this in my face. The reason why I went with the Android tv is the clean interface and ability to decrapify stuff in the event a tv maker decided to put garbage on the interface.
Since the android 9 update, I can’t clean up my main menu anymore.
Anyone figure out how to disable the awful “for you” suggestions on the main menu?
Are there any alternative launchers available?
I think if you go to account settings, there is an option for turning on apps only mode. However, that also disables the Google Assistant
Atv launcher isn't bad
Use a Non-Google TV supported IP Region by using a VPN, go to settings>apps>view system apps>Launcher X>Clear Data and viola! For you is gone!
The downside though is that the other tabs will like "Live", "Movies" & "Shows" will be gone too.
It literally escapes me
Use a different launcher.
