CleanYourTV for LG webOS

A fast home screen for rooted LG webOS TVs, with Live TV from your own playlist, an Inputs list on the Input key, picture notifications, optional on-device voice recognition and an optional debloat of LG’s ads and telemetry.

[!NOTE] LG’s system files are not modified. The launcher takes over Home with a mount that exists only in RAM, so a reboot without the boot scripts brings LG’s Home back. Everything we install is stored in /media/developer/cleanyourtv (plus two boot scripts and the key binds), and the uninstall removes it. It runs on the TV: no server and no account of ours, and the project collects no data. Optional features contact the services you choose; Security lists them.

CleanYourTV replaces LG’s Home with a launcher: a dock of four apps, a top shelf, an app grid sorted by use, an Inputs picker, a Settings shortcut and a clock. A small service runs on the TV as root and adds the rest. A manager app on the TV sets up, updates and removes everything.
