i've never even known what Roku is
It's the Japanese word for 6
its basically "low cost tv" subsidized by constant ads.
It's a smart tv preloaded with ads, idk but i guess people like ads? I don't get it.
I knew it was a box think I first saw it when curious about a hardware kodi (say 15-18 years ago?) back when they were newer. Though I just wanted something to show me what I have in my network, never used the other streaming on it, maybe missed out I dunno.
Oh I replied cause I wanted a device/program to have a nice browsing interface for my owned files, and having a program with ads? Big nope. Mean maybe I missed out but nothing I've read seemed overly interesting when I just wanted a nice interface. Now just use a PC with Kodi for my stuff with browsers / apps for streaming, works well enough. Probably pay too many services but not the only one in the house.
If I could never see another ad I'd be so happy heh south Park flashbacks.
It's what people say when they sneeze
