I use an old laptop running Mint as a streaming device. Set the thing in the A/V cabinet below the TV and control it with a wireless mini keyboard+trackpad. Works great and no spyware or tracking at all. And no ads if you run Brave as the browser.

The problem with that is that you never know what hardware works with Linux so test with a bootable live USB image before wiping your hard drive.
