If you plan to not use cable and consume everything over internet, forget about OS and just choose TV based on screen/budget and then use some streaming system. All TV OSes are crap from what I have read, there isn't a single good one, they usually are slow + manufacturer eventually will stop updating it.
I have tried Chromecast and it was pretty good. I guess Android TV would work same way so if you cannot decide between 2 TVs and one of them is Android TV, pick that one.
If you already have or plan to have a media server, check if it has a native app you could install on your OS of choice. Jellyfin for example is on Android TV.
I don't know man, I've been using my Roku TV from Haier that I bought back in 2015 or 16 and they're still updating it!
It's actually been a rock solid TV.
I like Roku, but their remote is stupid, for those few people who still watch OATV.
I think the best of both worlds is to get a TV with a good built-in tuner \ tuner-app, then hook a standalone Roku unit to it. All the Roku features & you get to keep the number keys & CC button.
