Yeah. It honestly blew me away. I switched my personal laptop to Linux, as one often does, primarily to revive some old hardware.

I thought I was giving up streaming from it, but it's been great.

I tend to run my TVs on non-stadard media devices due to privacy bullshit by vendors, and previously that has meant a lot of Android variant devices.

Looking forward, I'm really looking forward to running my living room TV off of a modified SteamDeck or a Linux media server build that is as close as I can get to one, thanks to the surprisingly good media experience of Firefox on Linux, lately.
