+1 for the Nvidia Shield and LineageOS route. Keep in mind that LineageOS doesn’t work with some proprietary features on the box such as:
Dolby Vision
AI Upscaling
Although this hasn’t really bothered me. This solution is basically set and forget. Is stable enough to leave at my parents house with almost no complaints.
Also another weird usecase… I use these nvidia shields for my LAN parties as thin clients.

What software do you use for the thin client part? I’m really happy with Moonlight, just Wayland support (no cursor) is a little broken.
Moonlight and a bunch of virtualized windows PCs sharing a graphics card. Makes setting and packing the LAN much less of an ordeal.
