Yes. I’d love this.

The software on tvs is awful. Plus many new tvs have ads baked in.

Software on TV (and worst, set top boxes) is awful is due to the fact that it is an under power CPU and limited memory. The app you saw is either web app in Webkit Embedded or similar embedded, Android app (Android TV) or Roku brightscript app.
