@yetticrg @DEADLINE Again. I dont care whos fault it is or what Roku OR Google says. I just want the apps I pay for to work on the devices I use and that wasnt happening with Roku. If you want to pick sides in a press release fight and pretend Roku is somehow better, enjoy. But they're not.

@paramountplus @Adele @Oprah I can't believe this co. won't fix their f* Roku app...!? It screws up on the ads. 3 weeks and counting. JFC!!! Forget it - I cancelled. Not changing my mind. You had 3 weeks - game over.

I don’t foresee $ROKU facing quite the same advertising headwinds that $SNAP faced this Q. 1) They won’t face nearly the same IDFA concerns b/c of their heavy CTV focus 2) Roku doesn’t exactly advertise within the same genre as Snap — suspect less severe supply chain issues

@illfee Yeah that’s a real risk. Though i think it’s only one that grows as the dispute progresses. Airplay mitigates a lot of that risk. The problem is the AV1 codec at dispute solves real issues for consumers post 2021 and Roku *needs* to solve for that w/o killing margins

@DykeCrone I wish they would make it clearer that the issue is with YouTubeTV not regular YouTube. Did you know Roku now blocks casting if it detects a VPN?

@nmarotta27 @FanaticsArmy Yeah I cut cable as well and have a login for msg. When I start last season couldn't mirror to my roku or smart TV. Maybe I was doing something wrong.

@majornija @FlyrDenDaAvgCam My iPad constantly gives me issues also. I use it stream from my iPad to the kids Roku and it does not play constantly or connect. That's why I got that android as the back up lol

@tjkirch @Roku Huh? YT apps already downloaded to Roku devices will continue to work. Why switch?

I really like my Roku Soundbar -- good sound but most notably b'c it has its Roku service built-in. @Apple needs to do this with @AppleTV -- a sound bar (HomeBar?) that will work on my wi-fi network, pair/work with various HomePodMinis around the house, and my AirPods too.

@cordbusters Interesting video from Mr Long. A very good review. Sky are missing out here, not all the apps are on there. I still think @Roku is better. If you want Sky you can get it on @RokuUK When Sky Glass does work it's just another streaming device but with not many apps/channls on it.

@ATTHelp can’t find a straight answer on ur site - says 3 mobile devices away from home. May switch to Directv stream but travel a lot for work & use Roku stick to watch tv. Need to confirm my traveling Roku & wife at home streaming same time is kosher w/ 3 out of home devices

@RStilinski @ChinLovesIowa Meaning if you didn’t have YouTube TV on your Roku device before they pissed each other off you can’t download it now. But as others have said you can get a Google Chromcast. Again, TCL- loved the price, quality long term is questionable. Love our LG 4K though.

@playontv Does the Playon app on my Roku device work for streaming with the PlayOn Cloud Whole-Home DVR for Android TV? I'm only seeing my PC Playon Server not my Android TV files. I see them on my iPad app fine. Thanks.

@Google, @Roku please work out the issues regarding YouTube and YouTubeTV. We consumers are the ones that suffer. I’m in my first month subscription with YTTV and the channel is now gone and need to use YT to access.

@RStilinski @ChinLovesIowa Ok I’m going to add on and clarify my NOT TCL comment: We have purchased 8 TCL/ Roku televisions in the past four (4) years. Three (3) of them no longer work and had to be replaced and they are very tight on their warranty. Also Roku and YouTube TV no longer like each other 1/2

@Roku Please work something out with Google so that YouTube can stay on Roku devices. I know it's their fault, but YouTube is the main reason I use and continue to buy Roku devices - please just make it work, I don't want to switch.

Title: Email allegedly shows that Google did ask Roku for special search treatment 💬: My problem with this isn't that it's a bug, it's that it's not a bug. I wouldn't be surprised if Roku is doing this for the same reason that it doesn't work on any other browsers.
