What's... The least crappiest TV os experience?

A smart TV with android/ android tv/ google TV/ those custom xiaomi/one plus/ moto/ Samsung or tizen or web os?

Or just a dumb TV + streaming stick?

The reason? I don't want to be encumbered by "you can't install this app" nonsense.

Something open or accessible at least

Usually the smart one use a standard board which can be swapped (or more likely purchased separately) and there are Raspberry Pi Board that are compatible with the standard. It's pretty cool! Consumer TVs should be mandated to work this way to help obsolescence.

I've only seen that on brands like NEC, Benq and some dedicated education or business models. Sony and Samsung just have modified versions of their standard OSs on much of their range.
