So over the past few months my Roku TV which is TCL brand has recently become slow and laggy. I've tried using the system reset button inside the settings menu and changing the batteries in the remot...

Same issue over the last several days on my two ultras and stream stick. The last update or two pretty much destroyed any positive experience. Remote clicks have a 1-2 second delay where they used to be instantaneous. After the Roku wakes up now, especially the stick, it takes a good 30 seconds before the remote does anything and it also broke my harmony remote pairing (issue is with both the Roku remote and my harmony) Driving me nuts its so slow. I may have to get something else to stream with for the time being as this is intolerable. Was just getting ready to buy another Roku tv as well. That's in permanent hold and I may even just buy a regular TV so I don't have to depend on the Roku os. You really need to get this figured out Roku. I've had a Roku pretty much since the Roku XD in 2011, several ultras and stick upgrades along the way and this is absolutely wrecking my experience with roku.m, which until now has been mostly perfect (outside one **bleep** low power stream stick I returned and the fact they all keep forgetting and not using the name brand sd cards I've added .
Restarts, unplugging, different channels, nothing works any differently and the device is up to date. Don't tell me to factory reset, if I have to set up all my channels on all my devices again, I'll get s firetv or another competitor's device to test out.
Same issue here. Non of the recommendations help.

The Roku Community TeamSame problem, delay with remote commands and worsening load times when opening streaming apps. The issue stems from the latest system update being too big for "older" devices. Really? I got my TV 3 years ago as a gift, fat chance I'll be able to buy one half as nice in the next few years especially with the economy tanking. Planned obsolescence destroys another otherwise perfectly fine piece of technology. Roku products have been on my avoid list for years due to the abundant ads but from now on I'll be sure to enthusiastically dissuade anyone from buying one of these TVs. Shoutout to the obvious bot replies that do absolutely nothing to help. Shame👎👎👎👎👎
