What are some TV specific Linux distros? What are your experiences with them? (slrpnk.net)

I'm considering replacing my Nvidia Shield in the future and plan to build a small TV box as its replacement. I'm curious about what operating systems people typically use for these types of TV-specific devices, as well as which desktop environments are preferred. Is KDE or GNOME better optimized for use on TVs?

I went down the lazy road with OSMC (Kodi) and their Vero 4k+ device to support their great work. Still running strong after 6 years.
