I have a Roku TV. I don't pay for any services.
Looking at a "fully loaded" jailbroken Firestick for $90. Comes with Kodi, Cinema, and more already set up.
I have never used a Firestick before.
Is this worth it? Do I need to have a VPN to use it without getting facefricked by my ISP?
Thanks.
>t. moron

I have a chromecast ultra for $60 and a synology 2 drive 8tb nas for $2000. I use the chromecast more but the nas is the better long term investment
>$2k+
This is why you don't pirate films, people. $5 Blu-rays are literally cheaper with better
I pirated over 3000 tv shows and films. The nas is an investment in not losing them.
>I use the chromecast more
Isn't the constant Bluetooth signal from that hazardous to health?
Jesus. Just get a HDMI cable for your laptop you clowns.
Saying something can play MKV's doesn't make sense. MKV 's can contain literally every kind of codec.
Roku can read many MKVs natively now, anon.
Why would anybody want to watch Mortal Kombat videos 24/7
It's the most common container format for torrents or even Archive.org anymore and Roku actually treats it like it's real now. Not fully compatible, but moreso than PS3.
Are there better media players than Roku's own built-in one? I loaded a movie the other day and the audio track defaulted to the director's commentary with no obvious way to change it.
>I have a Roku TV.
Fricking moron. Enjoy getting your personal data sold to the CCP. You get what you deserve.
>I have never used a Firestick before.
Because you're fricking stupid.
>Is this worth it?
No. They overheat and explode. Should've purchased an android box or plugged your PC in to your TV instead, dumbass. Better yet, route your phone + cast videos.
>Enjoy getting your personal data sold to the CCP
Let me guess, you have a Google TV? Kek.
>t. thinking Roku is immune to the same data mining scourge
>Fricking moron. Enjoy getting your personal data sold to the CCP. You get what you deserve.
>implying my government isn't already doing worse to me
I live in the US. China can't do worse to me.
>No. They overheat and explode. Should've purchased an android box or plugged your PC in to your TV instead, dumbass. Better yet, route your phone + cast videos.
I plug my laptop into my TV to stream movies and shows off of various sites, but they never last long. I also only have a couple that work any more. Was thinking Kodi and Cinema may be more expansive and reliable. As well as convenient.
Also willing to take good recs for streaming sites to watch shit off of via HDMI cable + wireless mouse & keyboard from my couch.
>I live in the US. China can't do worse to me.
The U.S. sells personal data to China daily, dipshit. Your government is the CCP's b***h.

Then fricking work harder, idiot.

You're saying what I said but acting like I'm dumb.
>Then fricking work harder, idiot.
?
I have like a 1st gen Chromecast. I don't think it's worth dick for my purposes any more.
Dubya sold the USA to the world for nothing.
>Claims roku is fiving data to china
>Uses a fricking android box when almost all of them have chinese backdoors
Get a load of this keking homosexual
>t. not knowing android boxes can be jailbroken to block said backdoors permanently
exactly. you get it.
>Enjoy getting your personal data sold to the CCP
i only want MY DATA getting STOLEN and ME being SPIED ON by my own UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
USA USA USA USA
This is the lowest IQ I've seen yet on Cinemaphile lmao

I hope you're prepared for the inevitable race war once your moloch overlords sic their brown-skinned hounds upon ye for your complacent stupidity you little butthole.
So anyway, anyone got experience with a JB Firestick? And do you like it?
Firestick lacks Ethernet and the hardware is slow with kodi you want an onn box or nvidia shield pro
You don't jailbreak a fire tv. You enable developer mode and install apks using adblink. I really like https://smarttubeapp.github.io/.
You won't need a vpn unless one of the apps uses torrents. I've never used a vpn with my fire tv so I can't recommend one.
You should also install https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-android/releases/tag/fenix-v124.2.0. You can get one of these https://www.amazon.com/AuviPal-Powered-Adapter-Charging-Streaming/dp/B07TX8FY6W and attach and air mouse.
Make sure you get the fire tv stick 4k max.
Fricking FINALLY someone helpful.
Thanks. I'll try to be less moronic wtih this.
It takes some effort but it's a seamless way to watch pirated content and switch to disney+ for normie content. Apps like https://kodi.tv/download/android/ will play movies from a file server.
The fire tv stick uses 32 bit android so keep that in mind when you download apps.
hdmi, homie. what are you a woman? they have wireless options too if you're that autistic.
>inb4 anon buys a backdoored firestick off facebook marketplace and gets his wifi network compromised
I unironically still don't understand what a jailbroken firestick, etc. actually does even after all these years. Does it let you watch Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc shows for free without accounts?
