The left part of the screen of my parent's Samsung TV have seriously blackened recently, so they are thinking of buying a new TV. We probably bought this like 6 years ago maybe, but I absolutely do NOT want to buy a Samsung again (6 years is just planned obsolescence reliability + their OS didn't let me remove the bloatware in any way or shape of form)

Which brand has been the most reliable for you, and also have you been able to remove the bloatware from your TV via dev mode or with a different method?

I have a 43" 4K Sharp I bought back in 2016 that's still going strong through two moves.
