Kodi on FireStick & Chromecast, etc
There are things like https://github.com/codefaktor/FTVLaunchX but you’ll have to look for a solution tailored towards your generation of Firestick and OS since Amazon likes to fiddle around with things and make users’ lifes more difficult instead of easier.

I get the SAME damn recommendations all the time
I use FTVLaunchX and ATV Launcher Pro on my Android TV device. Just install those two apps and enable the accessibility service for LaunchX.

YouTube to start blocking third-party apps that don't show ads
Can't recommend SmartTube enough: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube
Includes crowdsourced sponsor block as well. The day YouTube goes the Twitch route and starts embedding ads is the day I stop using it. Literally unwatchable at this point without adblocking.
