Is there a linux distro (or just a DE) that can be used like a Smart TV

I don't want to use Osmc or LibreELEC. What I'm going for is something like Android TV (tried using LineageOS but that didn't work out for me).

I was interested in something like Plasma Bigscreen but most of the tutorial is about 4 years old and point to using an old image.

I installed the Debian package. After that, I logged in and set Automatic login, and switch the session to Plasma Bigscreen (x11). After applying and a reboot, it launched Plasma Bigscreen but some widgets (like the audio, KDE Connect) froze when clicking on them.

What do you recommend? I prefer to use a Raspberry Pi.

Clicking on a link on the Post view is slow to open inside browser

Whenever I click on a link in the Post view, Boost takes up to 5 seconds to load up the page up in Firefox. Post view is set to "compact," but I tried others like "Cards 2.0" and "Cards".

I have "Open externally" set in the General -> Default browser settings. I set it to "internal browser," but that made no difference.

Firefox is set as my default browser. I then set the default browser to Vivaldi but that made no difference.

I used other Lemmy clients, and there were no delays.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

I'm using version 1.0.12 on Android.
