But it is important that the problem does not lie in the fact you have 'a smart tv', it lies in the fact people buy 'shitty smart tv's'. Those of use with good working smart tv's (mine's 5yo LGC8) read these posts of people saying "never buy a smart tv, always buy another device for it" and roll our eyes.
You have internet. Just so some research and include in your criteria that the new tv mustn't be shitty. Don't reward the marketbros by buying shitty tv's.
You have the same TV I do. That thing has been nothing but shit for me. I currently have it internet disconnected after doing a factory reset and it still goes out of memory and starts chain resetting after it's been plugged in for a couple of months.
Before the factory reset I had it vlanned off and opted out of telemetry tracking, uninstalled all the bloatware apps, and spent a good while waching idle traffic to make sure nothing was sending data... None of that mattered for me. You're attributing something to skill that is 100% luck.
Maybe it's a different market with less consumer protection?
Regarding memory I'm using 2 out of 4 gigs with about 10 apps installed so I don't know how you'd run out of it after factory reset and no internet. I'm reading there are 2gb LG's as well but I'd think C8 all have 4?
