minus-squareLucidNightmare@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·1 day agoBought a Roku back in 2020 or 2021 because the Apple TV was more expensive. Now I know why. For what it is worth, I have Roku set up as a REGEX in my Pi-hole so for the most part, any of this nonsense is completely blocked on my Roku. Needless to say, I shouldn’t have to do this shit with a device I paid for and mainly use for Plex streaming.
