Roku looks to be seriously tightening its pursestrings. The company’s laying off a full ten percent of its workforce, over 300 employees, in addition to a conducting a number of other cost-cutting measures, as reported by Variety. These job cuts are just the beginning, as Roku’s also removing streaming content, consolidating office space and reducing outside service expenses. The goal here is a major reduction in the year-over-year operating expense growth rate.

    I switched from a Chromecast to a Roku TV and I’ve been looking the interface a lot more. There’s probably some settings I didn’t mess with, but Roku’s default setting displays a lot of info in a good space, and it looks good, and I’ve only seen the occasional ad off to the side, not taking too much screen real estate. I also am a sucker for customizable and seasonal themes, though lol.
