I would honestly love to try switching to an alternative than continue using Fire OS on my Insignia TV, but I don't know of any good alternatives. Maybe I just haven't dug deep enough, but most "3rd party" (not Amazon or Google) Android implementations seem to only support phones, not TVs.

Fortunately, Fire TV can still install apps from outside their app store (like SmartTubeNext), but that can only do so much.

Ok Amazon

I'm... literally saying I'd love to try anything other than Amazon's Fire OS.

Yeah, I would gladly switch if there was a good 3rd party implementation of Android for Insignia TVs. I'm tired of getting Amazon ads on my TV.

Unfortunately, I haven't found one. Most 3rd party implementations are only for phones. If there is one for TVs that I don't know of, feel free to send me the link, though.
