• I would be using it to watch jellyfin mostly, but also youtube (I’ve seen that smartube looks good) and netflix.
  • Security and privacy are priorities.
  • My budget is up to 50 dollars.

I’ve seen this one onn Android TV amazon link, is it any good?

I’m new to the android tv box world so any help is appreciated.

    If that is a true priority, then you do not want Android TV. (You would also be hesitant with youtube and netflix).

      Is there a good way to watch the streaming services on your TV without trusting either Google/Apple/Amazon to not spy on you with their hardware?

        I went for an old small PC so that I can get 4K on Netflix with Edge (most Android box tops at 1080p or less, I don’t remember, because they are not certified by Netflix). I can watch YouTube videos on piped.com, use a VPN to watch contents available only in other countries and in this way no one is spying on me. @om1k@sopuli.xyz
