    Great, I got rid of Amazon fire stick after they stuck ads in movies and got a Roku.

    Now I’ll have to switch again or start pirating. Another loss for civilization

      Used a fire TV stick for a long time but multiple factors made me finally switch to an Nvidia shield.

      Worked great for a year and then an OS updated made the home screen 60% ads, especially those that started to play with sound when I was on them for like 2 milliseconds. Installed projectify on it and now I only see what I want to see.

      It is always disturbing to me how much ads I see when I am using someone else’s system, because I banned everything at home.
