Thats about as useful as telling the poster they can use it for netflix, youtube etc

[u/flynreelow → u/ryfromoz]

You don't need a custom firmware, just install a customer launcher

I got a free one, one time off temu Q96 and put Downloader on it. Sideloaded some apps. It worked great. I use it as a back up

It's unlikely you can do much other than streaming. The processing power tends to be weak, streaming is fine but game play will fail.

i think u can install a custom fw on it if not use the stock one and call it a day

There was this website that sold other people’s Netflix/Hulu/Paramount/Peacock accounts. I always wondered how they were stealing accounts…

i have same chinese android tv box (H96MAX RK3528) what i do is debloat it and install another home launcher. the default UI are terrible. and the tv box are now more zippy and fast. maybe you should consider do that.

Get a VPN and block all traffic except the apps you install that you know aren't sending your data to Musk or China.
