Adguard on my router has apple services at 7% of all blocked domains in the last 24 hours (545 times). Adobe is 14% in that same window (1135 times). I hate it here.
Do you have a Roku? Mine is losing its mind that it can't phone home, and all those ad settings are off.
Theres probably some Roku specific blocklists out there, but I got tired of playing whack a mole with all the new connections every week when I had my Roku. My partner also just wanted to watch tv without me fiddling with filters constantly, so I swapped to an Apple TV. It’s been nearly perfect with adguard (it even stops all ads on Hulu).
I have zero things Apple. Does it need Apple stuff to work? And is Jellyfin available?
I don’t think it requires iCloud or anything else apple. I’m not sure how “casting” works if you have a non-Apple mobile device, but that’s the only issue I can think of. Jellyfin works (I think it is called swiftfin) as well as Infuse. I also use Tailscale to watch things on my Apple TV from my NAS.
