Folks in want of an AirPlay receiver, perhaps?

[–] billwashere 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Yes this. Plus I’m tired of fucking firetv sticks.

[–] acosmichippo 15 points 3 days ago (1 children)

then stop fucking firetv sticks.

Ok this made me chuckle out loud.

The ports are actually kinda small.

I’m not seeing the issue here

This is built into Roku now. I can AirPlay to all my TVs, and I’ve never had an Apple TV.

[–] whynotzoidberg 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

My experience with Airplaying to a Roku-based TV is that it isn’t as smooth. E.g., screen mirroring a Mac had noticeable mouse lag, whereas it was pretty buttery smooth with an AppleTV.

Maybe newer Rokus have addressed that problem, though.

I haven’t tried with a Mac, but it works well with my iPhone. My TVs are at least a couple years old.
