    Bloodbath on the market today. To reiterate, with a 5 year+ horizon, smart to buy/hold on quality companies. In terms of growth (e.g. ROKU, SQ, etc), the thesis is unchanged for many companies and this is an opportunity to accumulate

  • pkaaaaaay Patrick Kinnamon (@pkaaaaaay) reported

    Hey @TCL_USA your Roku tv apps literally never work

  • EZsheetz Sheetz #D4L (@EZsheetz) reported

    What’s the work around for MLB tv and Roku? I want to watch local games 😢

  • Debb8675309 Nashville_Deb (@Debb8675309) reported

    @AmazonHelp I’ve already done all of that. Peacock app won’t play. Hulu won’t play. Paramount won’t play. They just spin and spin. I can stream them they my tv or the Roku in my bedroom so it is a firestick issue

  • Ietsgobucs AJ (@Ietsgobucs) reported

    @BloopAndABlast I honestly didn't have any issues until this year. their mobile radio player was always *** but the website and roku app never gave me issues until this year

  • RWBlakeYang Blek🐱 (@RWBlakeYang) reported

  • soonerbornoku Soonerbornoku (@soonerbornoku) reported

  • John071654461 John (@John071654461) reported

    @DIRECTVhelp I am trying to add my local channels. I use Roku and the online directions do not work for Roku.

  • lolrutz L i z a (@lolrutz) reported

    anyone know how to turn the captions off on the tnt roku app pls help

  • FarRightGirl Tru Justice (@FarRightGirl) reported

    @TMFStockAdvisor That's if you can buy a new TV. I just junked all my broken cathode TVs because they had stopped functioning from old age. I weeped because I had a wonderful Roku and it received pay services like Netflix and free services. Tube is better. Then nephew gave me is old working TV.

  • Tom Tom (@Tom) reported

    Buying from @Roku is a fun game. Which buttons that I’m never going to use will be on the remote this time? At least I actually have Netflix, AppleTV+, and Paramount+, but I don’t need the Disney+ button. Feels like a remote trading website could work, like trading cards.

  • anne57vt Anne 🐝🐝🐝😷💉💉💉 (@anne57vt) reported

    @Lemmonex We don’t have trouble with it, we watch through the hbomax app on our roku

  • diehardinMA Diehard Yankees fan living in MA (@diehardinMA) reported

    @RokuSupport I’ve tried this multiple times to no avail. Definitely a problem with the MLB app on the Roku; all other apps on the Roku work fine, and watching this app on a different device actually worked.

  • unuthryear Its not rigged (@unuthryear) reported

    @RokuSupport I have its a problem specific to Roku and MLBtv, and you both are taking turns blaming it on customer or each other. You need to work it ******** out

  • bartenz El Barto 〽️🏈🏀⚾️🥎🏒 (@bartenz) reported

    @hulu_support @hulu there’s an issue with your app on fire stick 4K Max, every now and then is buffering for a few seconds, happening on multiple channels. App is up to date. Not happening on roku tv under the same conditions.

  • CarlsMustang97 carls mustang97 (@CarlsMustang97) reported

    @MilitiaGamingCo Well that won't be roku's problem that would be TNT's problem it seems like they don't know how to shuffle their commercials

  • y2ktakeover yamilla (@y2ktakeover) reported

    Hisense Roku tvs are ******* horrible. The customer service sucks and they don’t help to fix **** 😤

  • Nats_n_Cats Marissa (@Nats_n_Cats) reported

    @samsHOEnov @molfully I can’t stream from the NBCSWas app either :( Both phone and Roku versions show errors.

  • lovestohootowls jo jones (@lovestohootowls) reported

    @DineshDSouza Would not transmit to Roku. Fix this for a $29.00 movie

  • Nate2Ro RoNate2 (@Nate2Ro) reported

    @VuduSupport Please fix Vudu on Roku.. it lags and locks up to the point I can't use it.. I checked for updates and there is none.. this needs to be fixed.. especially when using the List I have and moving movies to spots.. it locks up.

  • TartanLeotard Martin Nisbet (@TartanLeotard) reported

    @NOW Seems to be a problem with Now on Roku @roku devices again. Just bounces straight back to Roku menu. Suspect Roku update as several logos have changed e.g. Arrow, 5. The last time this happened it took a week to resolve.

  • diehardinMA Diehard Yankees fan living in MA (@diehardinMA) reported

    @MLBFanSupport I have determined that it is an issue with Roku and the MLB app. Other apps on the Roku work fine. I was able to watch a game on a different device. I’m starting the next game now and if this issue arises again I will be calling.

  • diehardinMA Diehard Yankees fan living in MA (@diehardinMA) reported

    @MLBFanSupport To be clear, I was able to watch the game using the MLB app on a different device and had no problems with it there. When I tried on 2 different Roku devices I encountered the same issue. All other apps on the Roku worked fine. FYI

  • RokuSupport Roku Support (@RokuSupport) reported

    @tvvola Hey there, we might have a suggestion for you. We'd recommend deleting the channel and reinstalling it onto your Roku device. This will clear the cache and hopefully get rid of this error for you. Hope this helps! If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out.

  • unuthryear Its not rigged (@unuthryear) reported

    Hey @MLBTV you need to get with @Roku and fix the goddamn bug that crashes app. Clearly you don't give a **** because its continued,over a month. I've already used your helpless reporting links, and did your"Uninstall app,& check all connections, reinstall" & still doesn't work

  • Prodigalsonfan3 Prodigalsonfan (@Prodigalsonfan3) reported

    1 year ago today @Roku @TheRokuChannel a travesty occurred when the best show on TV was cancelled based on shonky data. Since then, the show has gained millions of fans worldwide because quality always wins through in the end! It's time to #SaveProdigalSon guys!

  • baldfadebae Bald Head Barbie 💕 (@baldfadebae) reported

    @Roku remote stops working with new batteries and all ❌ now the app won’t work ❌ and I can’t connect manually because I need to go to settings on the tv to get IP code or whatever it’s called. ❌ I knew the price was too good to be good 🙄😒.

  • DJ_K88 DJ-K (Kenji) 🏳️‍🌈 • they/them (@DJ_K88) reported

    Is anyone else having issues with the @hbomax app on Roku loading? The app loads very slowly & then pops up with message that says it can't connect to the servers.
