I used to work doing dish, I used to suggest tv brands as, Samsung >Sony >lg and avoid everything else. But after all the shit Samsung does with their tvs, forcing their bullshit on them, forcing their smart tv shit over what you want. I no longer would suggest Samsung, they've fallen down to the likes of Roku.

On my Samsung tv I wanted jellyfin, needed to side load it. When doing so it blocked access to the Samsung servers and most Samsung features. I had no idea the tv could be so fast and responsive.

Funny you say that. LTT released a video not too long ago talking about how Roku is making a push into the mid market tv brands of performance per $.

What's the beef with Roku? I'm all in on Roku at home. I even got a new TV with Web OS or Tizen recently, I don't remember. I hated the OS and went out and bought a Roku Ultra LT for it. Have I just accepted or gotten used to the crap? Like the Netflix, Hulu, etc buttons on the remote or are there other problems?

My parents have roku and I use it when I’m over there. Seems fine to me.

Far better than my xbox’s home screen
