CleanYourTV: Claude Code-built debloater for smart TVs hits 25.6k stars, #1 trending
thisdudelikesAI · x · 2026-10-23
The open-source CleanYourTV project debloats any Android or Google TV over Wi-Fi — no root, no cable, fully reversible with a one-line restore. It disables telemetry, ad services, sponsored rows, and preloaded junk, replacing the ad-laden home screen with a clean Apple TV-style launcher. It supports 243 TV models across 69 brands, ships a 474 KB native launcher that runs on 1 GB RAM, covers 25 languages, and killing in-app ads via Private DNS ad-blocking; a community phone app does it in 5 minutes. Started from a before/after video of the creator's parents' TV (7.4M views on Oct 17), it drew 200+ contributors in four days and now sits at 25.6k stars as the #1 trending repo of the week.
