Planning on switching to AppleTV (alien.top)

I have a google chromecast (w GoogleTV) and the UI and lag is becoming a nuisance.

With Apple TV, do you get apps like Twitch and YouTube? Do livestreams work well? The most common apps I use are Twitch and YouTube but also Max, Netflix, Crunchyroll and Amazon Video.

Apple TV throws every streaming stick or device under the bus. They are all underpowered and buggy. Apple TV uses the iPad chips. Always super snappy.

I sure hope so given it’s like 3x the price

The old phrase “you get what you pay for” really rings true with Apple TV

The complete lack of frustration is worth 3x the price.
