My sister needs a streaming device but they all seem to be awful. The only one that seems somewhat decent is the Apple TV but that’s too expensive. Out of the cheaper ones which one is the least worst? I’m currently leaning towards a Firestick because it seems marginally better than Roku and Chromecast have apparently been discontinued
Roku may be discontinued but they’re still relatively easy to get and should still work for everything except the actual roku channel app.
I would actually like to go back to one. It was the most basic-ass smart thing and did exactly what I needed it to do and nothing else. The smart TVs I’ve had since the dumb TV+Roku combo have been horrible.

I didn’t even know they’d been discontinued!
I didn’t either (because apparently they aren’t); I just misunderstood the last sentence of your post and thought you were saying both Roku and Chromecast were discontinued.
Explains why they are still for sale everywhere lol
Yeah I probably needed a comma there lol

My last Roku froze up and overheated after a software update. It was also slow as molasses. It’s also a privacy nightmare.
