Re: Roku add a freaking Internet web browser

Taking my Roku back. 2024 and no web browser.  How is that even possible. 


Because a web browser is a useless app on a device without a keyboard and pointing device. Today's web sites are designed to use a mouse or touchpad for navigation. And it's been explained before that the Roku OS doesn't support adding external devices like that. They need to make the OS as lean as possible and they remove all functionality that doesn't improve streaming performance.
