I sort of regretted downloading massive rom packs for retro consoles because I never actually get round to playing them. it’s so hard to settle on one when there’s so much choice. But now with the recent crack downs on ROM sites I’m really glad I’ve preserved them. Hoard away friend!

With mappable mouse keyboard controls I imagine it would be really fun

Looks amazing can’t wait to try it out!

You could use freezer instead

Same I love adguard. I only wish there was a way to use it with a third party VPN (without root)

Just gave me a random memory. I used to scan stuff through as onions back when self checkout was introduced. Got away with it so many times. Wouldn’t recommend it now😅

True but they offer clubcard prices for certain items which are made to look cheaper. In reality the clubcard price is the true value and the ‘base’ price is a mark up. So I guess we’re being charged for trying not to give our data

Honestly I think it would be easier to find rompacks with more seeders, Download batocera and then add your Roms yourself. It’s not that much more work although it might feel like it

Damn shit like this freaks me out I wonder how easy I would be to track down

No worries, gotta share the booty!

I personally use adguard to block connections whilst also doubling up as ad/tracker blocker. You can also route different apps through a proxy network such as tor if you want certain apps to be more private

Mobilism is good for games/apps. Most of the apks have trackers removed and have access to paid content. If you’re particularly concerned you could block them with a firewall

I like vidya waifus

Expand your switch experience with emulation!

Super ghouls and ghosts. It’s humbling me!

If you don’t get an answer here might be worth trying mobilism forum. That’s where I get a my apks

You can actually install homebrew on lgtvs which includes an adfree YouTube app. The process is pretty simple as well. Here’s a guide from you know where;

Some days ago I’ve found an easy peasy method to sideload a modified ad-free YouTube IPK file to all LG OLED TVs from year 2020 on (so from line CX/GX on), but I got feedback here that with C9 TVs it works too.

You need a computer with either Windows or macOS (I believe an iPad might do the job too) connected in the same network.

First we have to create a free LG webOS developer account at https://webostv.developer.lge.com/login (you can change language if it’s not yours), but if you already have a normal LG account just login with it so to enable also the developer account.

Now as a one time process go to your TV and from the Content Store download the app Developer Mode (made by LG itself).

Launch it, put in your dev login details and enable Dev Mode Status.

You will be asked to reboot so do it.

At next reboot enter again that app, enable also Key Server and note down IP address and passphrase both displayed on the left side.

Uninstall the official YouTube app from the TV (you won’t be able to run the modified app without doing this).

Go to your computer and head to https://github.com/webosbrew/dev-manager-desktop/releases to download and install the latest release of Device Manager for webOS.

Follow the instructions at GitHub to setup a session to connect to your TV (basically give it a name, enter both the IP and the passphrase I told you to note down before and you are done) and connect to the TV.

If everything went well you should be connected so while having selected Apps in the left panel be sure to select also Available on top.

Look for Homebrew Channel in the list and click Install.

Go again to your TV, launch Homebrew Channel and there you will be able from now on to install or update YouTube AdFree and several other apps like ie. Hyperion for webOS.

Disclaimer:

The downside of this method is that every 1000 hours you do need to hit the EXTEND button in the Dev app
