I have a google chromecast (w GoogleTV) and the UI and lag is becoming a nuisance.
With Apple TV, do you get apps like Twitch and YouTube? Do livestreams work well? The most common apps I use are Twitch and YouTube but also Max, Netflix, Crunchyroll and Amazon Video.
I found nice silicone covers on Amazon for all my remotes. They can now hang vertically on the back of a couch without slipping down.
