No sideloading, cloud storage and Amazon knows all about you to sell your information and gain leverage over verified apps…1gb of RAM , 8gb storage is plenty when control is the objective. Paranoid, no, they really are out to get ya.

I wonder if that remote will pair with my never Shield Pro!
It’s amazing that people are still talking about Firesticks. I replaced mine a year and a half ago with BuzzTV boxes and there’s no comparison. I can’t even find someone to take this old crap. I did learn how to run my devices lean tho and I take some consolation in that, lol.

My motto if it works don’t fix it
That’s a good motto and i’m fully cognizant that experiences differ from person to person. I cut my teeth on 2 firestick devices - a 3rd. generation and a 4K device. To call it challenging would be an understatement, but there were lessons learned that have benefited my current experience and I guess that’s what’s it’s all about. I have come to the unhappy conclusion that the intention of these relatively cheap devices is planned obsolescence and future sales. My response - Invest in a positively reviewed device that includes all power features in one device. For example - sufficient RAM and gigabit ethernet. Nvidia Shields are a good example that have changed relatively little while offering powerful features.
