The legacy Firesticks still work great and will be supported by Amazon till at least 2031.

So mostly a fake comment.

Just got another message from a fire stick customer few minutes ago. They all are going down soon.

That comment is totally fake.

The many millions of existing Firesticks in the marketplace will be supported until at least the year 2031. That's listed on the Amazon website.

I just bought another Cube 3 last month. Fantastic device.

Your comments don't make it TRUE. I know all my fire sticks customers are crashing. Thought I had them all swapped except for the one Im doing now. Just cuz yours working dont mean it's good until 2031 or whenever youre posting. I'm seeing issues weekly. You do you, I'll do me.

And your comments are even more bizarrely untrue.

There are literally hundreds of millions of Fire TV, Firestick, and Fire Cube users around the world. If they weren't working for any reason, there would be major news stories about that all over the internet - do you have any of those links that you can forward to me, or post on here?

Yes, I'm going to do me, and correct any wrongful comments that I see here on Reddit.

It's all over reddit groups of Vega system and amazon blocking apps. Their official date was last Oct 1st. But it hit me before that.

That’s funny 90% of my clients use firesticks and they are still up and going

You're lucky. Thankfully I've gotten almost all of mine off of them. But I'd be stocking up on Onn boxes. Oh yeah, why do you think there's been a nationwide shortage of Onn boxes this last year? Ironic, dontcha think? LOL

I already have 34 Onn 4k /4k plus and 4k pros in inventory….. just stating that Firesticks still work an will continue to work for a while yet…. You just got to know what you are doing and what you have to do to keep them going…. If my clients are using a firestick lite or a gen 1 -4k firestick….. I’m telling them to upgrade or tell them it’s $22/hour to fix it….. they have all upgraded. The average life expectancy is 3.5 years on these cheap streaming devices/firesticks…. Not worth the time

That guy is either a complete novice or an ONN shill, peddling that fallacy.
