Is it that common outside the us? I know of exactly one family here in Germany having Apple TV.

It is in the UK, but I don’t think it is on the continent.

They’re not insanely common even in the US, since Roku and Android sticks are cheaper and I don’t live in a wealthy area, but they’re not hard to get or unheard of.

The distinction between AppleTV, the hardware, and Apple TV+, the streaming service, was lost on many. Now that they are “Apple TV 4K” hardware and “Apple TV” service, it’s even harder to convey the correct meaning.

I've never seen one in Poland.

The only folks using Apple TV in 2026 are like 60+ yrs old.

I've literally not seen one in anyone's home for probably 5+ years. And even then nobody used them.

Apple TV was one of those products that relatively few people bought but they were loud about buying it, so it seemed more popular than it was. Then other services like Roku($20) quickly replaced it.

I'm in the USA.

Roku became adware and most of my friends/family switched to AppleTV
