My TV is not a smart TV but has hdmi inputs. Are there any non American alternatives to the Amazon fire stick?

A Playstation can also stream all kinds of stuff but it is much more expensive.

Thomson is a french company. Never used them though.

I have a firetv stick and a playstation hooked up to my TV (which is smart, but horribly slow) and would never choose to stream something on my playstation if it's about usability. Maybe a playstation remote might make a difference but still

Thomson

A great answer to the question

I‘d complain about it running Google but honestly I’ve not managed to de-Americanise my streaming services yet anyway so this could work well. I’ll try and remember its existence when my firestick dies. Thanks for sharing.
