I wouldn't browse HN on my FireTV, but it's great for live streams of various events, which seem to exist on a zillion different websites (I just watched a wedding this morning on my FireTV using Firefox)

The UI is really weird; I only use the browser for videos where no app option exists.

The most important and easy thing to miss is probably that this is on "DEVICES" not on "Tablets." You can still run it just fine on the color Amazon Android-based handhelds, it's the "IoT" category devices where it's going away.

Honestly I wouldn't have predicted better than a 50% chance that Firefox ran on those anyway.

Isn't the echo voice-only? How does that even work?

The article says "Echo Show" which is a device with an integral display.
