Yeah, I have a Firestick 2nd Generation, which lags like hell now and it has done ever since they upgraded the interface a couple of years ago. Presume that's Amazon code for get a new one. My 4k stick is still happy two years on.
(I got £15 off the 2nd generation firestick when I bought it in 2017 as I used to be a member of Lovefilm, before Amazon bought the company out, and they closed the DVD Rental service, but we all got £15 off a Firestick, so I got it for £25 as opposed to the then full price of £40)
At the moment I can see a 20% trade-in offer for my 2nd Gen, so might wait until it drops again. The TV its on isn't Smart or 4k so I may just replace it with a Lite instead (but can't trade the 2nd gen in for that)
