+1.

I discovered this a few months ago. My Roku was getting slower with some of
the apps; many of which I didn't use. I discovered that (1) You can delete
the ones you don't use (this speeds it up considerably as it frees memory),
and (2) You can move the apps around (so I put the few that I use at the
top).

Wow, I have the exact Opposite.  I would take my Firestick over my Roku anyday. 
 Firestick is way more responsive.  I only use 2 apps on my Roku, day to day 
they will either be somewhere on the front page, or 2-3 page scrolls away with 
a bunch of other random apps showing on the home page.

Do they mean clocking?

Cooking?  Like it's really hot
Clicking?  Like it's making a sound
Clucking? They should throw the chicken back outside.
