Maybe all these IT people getting laid off from all these major tech companies can get hired to fix the constant lagging of Netflix on Roku

I seriously despise popular companies & manufacturers that don’t give their customers direct access to get help from a customer service representative/agent. For instance, cash app & Roku TV manufacturers have a number you can contact, but you will receive zero service. 🚮

@JohnJHarwood Recently got a new smart tv and didn’t think I needed anything else to stream since it already has tons of apps. Wrong. I learned through several weeks of trial and error that all streaming devices are not created equal. Finally settled on Roku Ultra and have had no issues since.

@CoachedBetter @askparamount @tigerdude22 It was but that was the 1st time I've ever had an issue with them like that. My daughter gets glitches on her PS4 but we've never had a problem on the Roku. It's resolved and it looks like it was quite a few people not just a handful.

@Crunchyroll Seriously, please get your **** together and stop releasing new episodes of stuff with no subs (even when indicated), A/V synchronization issues, and most importantly of all, find a way to stop your Roku app from crashing constantly. Just please.

@JohnJHarwood I don't have Chromecast, but I've found Firestick to be pretty good. I have that & a Roku, because ALL of them sometimes have contract issues w/ channels & that way I don't miss mine.

@JohnJHarwood I just switched to streaming from cable so this is all new to me. I am using Roku 4k sticks and so far, so good. And they are much more user-friendly than Apple TV (awful remote).

New TV Saga (Part 6): There are only two HDMI ports. So, Roku and DVD player are hooked up. The satellite dish box is not. I'd suspended that account anyway so I'm not using it and I was having trouble with it.

@Crunchyroll can you please fix your damned Roku app? It was glitching out before but today it's straight up refusing to play any videos. I don't know what shoddy update you pushed out at the beginning of the year but do better. I swear I will ******* cancel and pirate my anime.

@JohnJHarwood Started out with Roku when it first came out. My set up is now: FireTV w basic Roku and Chromecast dongle. IOW, no one of them gets me everything I want. Did not go with Roku TV because the Roku remote is so awful.

@garvin_jamelyn It's a very irritating thing for me now and I'm not even in the know of who is playing now. My Roku controller is MIA and Fox is showing old movies. But I think I'll just clean house and work on finding the controller

@TheGingerPerks I think the roku remote has to be synced to the roku in order to work. Atleast on my roku it does. I tried my brothers remote on mine and it wouldn't work.

@lizhump77 I signed up for one month of Netflix to watch the Glass Onion. For some reason, Netflix runs super slow on my Roku. I do have slow internet, but I don't have this issue with any other streaming service. It is discouraging to navigate around Netflix. It does fine on my PC.

@JohnJHarwood Spend the money on an Apple TV. Every Amazon stick I’ve owned is now too slow. Roku interface is weak. I don’t want a Google product. Apple TV is speedy, helps you keep track of your shows, and people I know who have older versions can still use them and they work well.

@JohnJHarwood I’m a Roku customer. Very pleased. Reliable and intuitive with few crashes/glitches…and when it does crash, it’s no trouble to reset.

@JohnJHarwood I've had them all. I like Roku the best. They are the least apt to try to lock you into a weird ecosystem. FireTV and AppleTV are worst on this score. Only exception is for YoutubeTV subscribers I'd give the edge to Chromecast.

Never seeing anything after Victory Road 2022, like Bound for Glory 2022 and everything after that. I'm tweeting you this cause maybe all could contact Roku or something and see if you fix this by having them start showing everything after Bound for Glory 2022.

@TT58_ are you watching on a streaming player like Roku? I've heard those have had synching issues. The Napoli x Juve audio was fine on our end as far as I'm aware

@TeamYouTube It was wrong language on Roku but right language on phone. I cast phone to tv and it worked. FYI: very disappointed that YouTube intentionally makes it almost impossible to seek direct customer support. I spent over an hour last night trying to resolve issue.

@Crunchyroll @Roku I beg you to fix the Roku app. Beg you. It is a steaming broken pile of ****, I love the service, but I can’t use it half the time because the app doesn’t work. Just steal the funimation app and rebrand it already.
