https://miguelmota.com/ When I find a topic particularly interesting, I like to write an in-depth post on it. My blog content is mostly on all things web. I don’t blog as frequently as I should though.

HN discussionYou don't need to root the FireTV stick at all. You can install termux from the F-Droid application by installing F-Droid first by installing the APK from the Downloader app. If you want to root the device for fun, I wrote a little tutorial post a few months ago https://miguelmota.com/blog/rooting-a-fire-tv-stick-4k/
