That's fantastic for you, but a quick Google search will bring up plenty of articles and reddit threads of people bitching about this and other ways the Chromecast has been broken over the years.

I have no idea what people are fucking up tbh.

It's 2 button clicks to cast stuff, I just went and sanity checked.

The internet is full of disinformation and idiots though so I usually just assume people are the issue, when I have the same hardware and zero issues.

I don't think chromecasts have even gotten any kind of major change updates in ages so it's bizarre for it to change behavior.

I'm gonna just keep going with "people are dumb" until someone posts some concrete example (IE an actual video) of wtf their issue is.

The chromecast is designed so simply though that I can't imagine wtf people are fucking up.
