You can sideload a modified version of YouTube that blocks ads and skips ads inside videos too (or intros, or interaction reminders, etc). You can use custom screensavers. You can remap buttons on the remote. You can install RetroArch. You can install Kodi.

Basically you get a Homebrew Channel that supports downloading custom apps from any repo, and it bypasses the developer certificate so the apps just work forever, you don't have to keep resigning them.
