I will second the Roku. I tried this a few years ago and kept running into issues. Some sites like Netflix don’t offer HD resolution on PC. Then there are other services that have sketchy support for Linux. HBO and peacock are 2 examples.
I use my PC for personal streaming and a Roku for the main TV
I used to pay for Hulu live tv but decided I wasn’t getting enough out of it and bought a Roku instead. Now that I have it with free apps like PBS, crackle, freevee, tubi, Plex, Pluto, xumo, and a few others plus a few paid subscriptions like peacock, paramount, and basic Hulu, I have more content than I know what to do with for a fraction of what I was paying for live tv ($85/month in addition to my internet bill). It wouldn’t be possible without very fast and reliable Internet however.
