personally I prefer android streaming boxes, because you can install custom versions of android tv on them, so if the official release from google is bad, you can just go to the community version

There any custom versions you can point me to? I've been looking for a custom Android OS to install on my Insignia Fire TV.

lineageOS, but you have to have a supported device, and I'm not seeing that device on there. Plus fire tv's are pretty locked down. I would suggest walmarts onn 4k box or an nvidia shield
