Before I buy another Roku, are there any options for a streaming box/stick that run FOSS? A foss derivitive of android TV would be nice if that exists, ideally preloaded on an inexpensive and compact piece of hardware.

    If you can find a cheap used micro-form-factor pc with hdmi output (eg thinkcentre m93p), that’s a great sustainable way to go. Stick debian on it, get a cheap tiny bluetooth keyboard/trackpad, stream via web browser. Bonus if it’s got a dvd player, for the ultimate utilitarian foss htpc.
