frick chromecast. i trashed my whole collection b/c the google nazis kept removing more and more casting from it to the point it was unusable.

firesticks will immediately be slow from the time you plug them in. god help you if you have one set to power on when you turn the TV on. the only thing that makes them remotely bearable is to plug them into power separately so you don't have to wait for that sluggish POS to slowly come to life.

roku is my #1 with a lemonade. simple, fast, good ux and i haven't found any apps i needed yet that require me to try & hack it.

so i'm gonna say roku ftw.

agree, have used mine rarely in the past year.
That being said, there were a couple oft times that I was trying to cast something and neither my roku nor my fire Tv wemas listed as an option. So I had to use chromecast. So I just keep it around but yeah don't use it much

Roku is extremely anti-piracy and your options are extremely limited in their system.

Get a man's streaming device and get an Nvidia Shield.
