Tbh the Apple TV is absolutely worth the money.

Yeah it’s expensive but there is so much less bullshit to deal with and it just works.

I went through like 3 rokus and a fire stick before getting fed up.

Agreed. I didn't want to like it because I have no other Apple products, but it's the only streaming device I've tried that just works. Every other one is buggy, laggy, has a terrible interface, or the apps I want it for are terrible on that platform. Meanwhile the Apple TV is smooth and never gives me trouble.

 Yeah I've gone through a bunch of streaming devices and the AppleTV (1st gen 4k I think) is the only one I've tried that Just Works. No crashes, no errors, no lag, you just get in and watch. Don't have anything else in the Apple environment but it's not that much trouble.
