I dunno... It was nice for a while, but after a year or two I just had more issues with it than it was worth. Losing wifi connection, freezing and rebooting.. for the last year, I switched entirely to my built in apps on my tv. I hate the apps built into my LG tv but those have significantly less issues than my Chromecast, surprisingly.

LG is okay for now. It does seem they keep making the interface more enshittified with each update.
I'm sad I missed my chance to jailbreak the TV ๐ญ
I enjoy mine, it does a good job most of the time.
However Google is preparing to sunset the chromecast.
