    there used to be a secret menu for Roku where you could disable home screen ads

    That’s the first link. If it no longer works, I guess Roku isn’t an option anymore. 😟

      I should clarify: the secret menu can still be navigated to and the options there set. But ads now appear regardless. I went back into the menu and verified the options hadn’t changed (they hadn’t). It’s like Roku has gotten wind of the exploit and ‘fixed’ their OS to ignore those options.
