Help choosing an android tv box

om1k@sopuli.xyz to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 39 points –
  • I would be using it to watch jellyfin mostly, but also youtube (I've seen that smartube looks good) and netflix.
  • Security and privacy are priorities.
  • My budget is up to 50 dollars.

I've seen this one onn Android TV amazon link, is it any good?

I'm new to the android tv box world so any help is appreciated.

Huh. Didn't know you could do that to a Chromecast! Do you do it using adb?

CC with android tv. not a regular CC or a CCU

Right has to be Chromecast with Android TV

Do they even sell the other ones anymore?

im sure some are still being sold, make sure it says w/ android TV.

I'll have to check the box but I'm pretty sure that's what I bought. The fact that this is even an option is pretty exciting. Would I be able to include Adguard if you can push apks to it? (Would it even be worth it?)
