I've been using Firefox on my Fire TV to stream as it works better than the Silk browser. I've searched everywhere to find just why Firefox is bailing out of Fire TV. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Hi

In 2017, we recognized a void in the market, and a need from consumers to continue to access the content they wanted on Amazon’s Fire TV. By being nimble and working quickly, we met that demand with our browser, Firefox for Fire TV and later, Echo Show.

Now, consumers have more options for accessing content on these devices. So, we decided to shift our focus and resources to building new experiences that bring value to people’s lives and continue to offer people alternative choices in the market.
