undefined | Better HN

I bought two of them and loved them for a couple years, at least for the content it opened up.

However casting was unreliable. I never figured it out but I remember posting on HN about it years ago and other people had the same complaint.

Then the YouTube app on my android phone would hang or crash. My Android phone kinda rotted after 4 years or so. I had a dedicated one for chromecast.

Now I just use a wireless keyboard and an Ubuntu box connected to the TV. Works quite well, I can get all the apps and content I want through the browser.
