Tubi crashes after 30 seconds on Roku tv
What Roku isn't telling you is that this crash and others is caused by Roku. Roku wants you to subscribe only to their system/add ONS.

Tubi, Pluto, Plex, etc...all apps outside the Roku app freeze up and stop after 30 seconds to 2 minutes...i.t. guy here for last 30+ years...Roku is as evil as Google...
Connect your RokuTV to a mobile hotspot rather than your network. If all streams properly, the home network configuration or your internet connection (physical) is your likely culprit. (or you have a problem RokuTV).
Try adjusting your wireless channels, the bandwidth/channel widths, or some other DNS on the router if the hotspot gives you better results.
As makaiguy indicated, many of us use the free channels/apps available on the the Roku platform and I am not seeing the issues/implications you are making.
From my experience, I would also recommend using a Roku device over a RokuTV any day though due to the hardware differences. I retired my RokuTV due to poor, sluggish performance and crashing. No such issues on the Roku devices. (you can even attach a Roku device to the RokuTV in order to upgrade it).
