Considering leaving Roku Ultra (alien.top)

What the title says. I don’t know if the Apple TV is sincerely better than the Ultra, but since I’ve built up what I’d consider a fairly standard home theater system (4K tv with HDR, soundbar w/ Dolby Atmos…no surround system or anything overly fancy) the Roku has caused some annoyances. Right now the hassle is the Paramount Roku app keeps blanking the screen when watching Dolby Vision content, sometimes requiring a tv power cycle.

Anyways, I know I’m asking the Apple crowd here but I’m considering the switch but don’t know if it’s a difference of preferences or if Apple TV (4K) is genuinely superior?

probably just a personal experience but after having APTV for years i just cant stand anything else.. all the other systems seems so cheap and broken and slow compared to the ATPV

i have a 4K oled tv (LG C1), sonos soundbar and sub, and everything just works togethre flawlesly
