Over the holidays I used a HP laptop & Netflix trial to show my dad but now i'm back home I have continued using the laptop only because trial ends soon and I want to use my MacBook but with Netflix I can't download.

My next choice was an Amazon Firestick. Will this work with a MacBook? I don't have a TV in the flat I use my MacBook. I grew up in Germany so the German TV & films is great on Netflix for me, that is why I enjoy Netflix but they are ignorant when I ask questions, I hear nothing so I am looking around.

Any ideas?

thank you so much
