@kaytavener1 @TheRickyDavila Throwing away & replacing something you already own that is not broken is incredibly wasteful. Consume less & put our planet first. Roku is not owned by Fox.

Roku 1H2022 Takeaways - Is the thesis BROKEN? 2022 has revealed miscalculations by leadership on macro-related platform revenue deceleration. Therefore growth in hiring and content spend (capex) for 1H 2022 was ABOVE platform revenue growth resulting in a net loss. A 🧵(1/7):

$PARA goes down with Netflix because streaming is a problem, goes down with Comcast because broadband subscriptions down, goes down with Roku because linear streaming advertising is down. These concerns are valid but unjustify the valuation multiple as $PARA has other revenues.

@dhaval_kotecha Thanks. Guess my pushback is, if biggest digital ad cos are seeing headwinds & having trouble forecasting w/ confidence, why any diff for ROKU mgmt? Part of me says ok maybe growth off smaller base should help vs the mega caps, but ad issues seem systemic right now vs idio.

@LuoshengPeng Roku is great potential and already has userbase.. the only problem is management.

@HarleyMCarroll Ad spending slowed abruptly in June. But Roku has record ad commitment over the next year. (Disney does too.) Long-term still intact and not broken.

@MmeAlexandraS Is your argument against ARK, that they should hold more Tesla? It’s pretty standard for funds to have caps. Or is this an issue with Arkk’s lack of risk management? I personally think Ark is a pretty good tech growth benchmark tool. I’m not a fan of Roku, Teladoc, Coinbase

Me, too. Shows I was just watching can't be played. RT @greenleaf430: @Viki I am having problems with Viki on my Roku TV. I have a VikiPassPlus. Some dramas are inaccessible or blocked, i.e. Timmy Xu, Xiao Zhan; but ok when using the app on my smartphone. Kindly look into it.

Reminder to Blue Jays fans, built in Apple TV apps on an LG “Smart TV” likely will not work. I had to use a Roku or fire stick or whatever last time.

@LaMonicaBuzz Different biz models. Roku’s primary issue isn’t that fewer people are streaming, it’s that advertisers have pulled back.

By the way. Firesticks more than 2 years old do not work well on new Wi-Fi Routers that operate on the new, faster Wi-Fi standards that are just now hitting the market for consumer’s homes. ROKU was way ahead on this compatibility.

Remember when I tweeted I didn’t have any ROKU stock? Heh. I bought 1 lot during extended hours after the crash. Already up almost $300. Hope it continues. Am prepared to HODL.

@TeamYouTube Please relay feedback to fix. Roku OS and your app up to date. If I change Roku to stereo it immediately goes away. If I try another app it immediately goes away. If I switch inputs to Apple TV no issues. It’s 100% your app update to 5.1 on Roku.

@dissectmarkets I have a TV with built-in ROKU in my bedroom. It has been really unreliable. My goal is to quickly put on a show for my 3yo son when he comes into our room in the morning. I frequently have to reboot the TV and troubleshoot the wifi connection to make it work :|

@JEPopeIV idk my Roku is way more glitchy. Fire seems to crap out mostly on specific apps that are just super outdated. How old is yours? I’ve been thinking of getting a newer version cause something tells me that will fix the problems lol

Seeing lots of real Roku negativity on the gap down, with several people I follow selling this gap down. Makes me think we’re near the end of something and the worst is just about priced in based on sentiment alone.

@saxena_puru @saxena_puru, i thought the problem for Roku this quarter was pulled advertising spend. how is your tweet about a TV manufacturer using Google over Roku a warning sign for slowing ad spend. thanks! for the record: i don’t have a position and never have had one in Roku

@la_jellybean Yeah the app was a bit poor at first on Roku and PS4 but stopped having issues about 6 months or so ago and it's been good since.

@Spookylish @thesmilinggoat Yes you don't need an Apple TV subscription, however built in Apps on LG (and Samsung I have been told) televisions didn't work last time, but Roku/Amazon Fire Stick worked well, also downloading the app and watching on a laptop, phone, or tablet will work.

@FromValue @Hippie_Investor I really don't see how they are competitors in the same was at all. Roku should revenue share with OEM TV manufacturers. Only way the company survives LT IMO. Vizio a potential partner as well. Vizio OS just awful

(@grace_za) reported
I loved ROKU from the days when they were only an audio streaming device company. They solved the streaming problem when bigger tech companies couldn't. It is a shame that little tech companies that solve these big problems are almost never the ones who end up making a pile.

@NFTaimz @avivs @unusual_whales Most of Roku TVs are brands like TCL Philips and Hisense. In the end, it’s an ads company and device sales is a smaller portion of its revenue. It faces competition from other brands like Samsung and LG that have their own OS, and suffered from post-pandemic crash like Zoom.

$TTD comes out with earnings in 11 days. If they do well and don’t have issues like $ROKU I will consider selling Roku then as it would mean it’s a Roku problem and not just advertising. Big If and thinking out loud with guidance from others

@dorandemiroglu_ The problem I have with roku blue is that I like taison friends more than him, and they don't get enough screen time Or any relevance after some time, it's mostly all about raison and his journey That's my only problem with it
