A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

A lot of the fire tvs can be rooted! There’s a great community over at XDA with all the needed resources.
I have two 4k sticks (1st gen) rooted and debloated running Leanback launcher. When you cut out all the junk, it really is (or was?) the best 4k streaming device under $50.
I‘ll definitely have to try if that’s possible with my Grundig TV that has a FireTV built in.
Coolcool! At the very least, you should be able to block Amazon from pushing updates.
