      Maybe something like this would do the trick. https://www.newegg.com/lg-55ur340c9ud-55/p/N82E16824026275

      I’ve never bought a commercial display, but I’ve heard of them as alternatives to smart TVs. I don’t know about the management software on this though. Additionally, I hard that some displays are really meant as signage, so they don’t display moving images well. It may require more research than buying a consumer TV.

            I have no complaints. I don’t use ITS smart features tho. I gots myself a roku for my plex server. Haven’ seen the LG’s homescreen in years.

              Roku is enshitifying these days to. Forced ads on startup. I got one the other day. And it was double loud too. But it stopped after that. So it is just a matter of time before we have to find a roku replacement.

      Be careful. I’ve heard tells / seen posts that seem to indicate there are now monitors that tap your USBC to get network, and display ads… 🫠

        what precisely does “tap my USB C” mean? USB isn’t something that just permeates the air, and a charger can’t magically access the internet unless you specifically have powerline adapters installed (and even then good luck)
