Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over 59000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format for easy installation on your machine.

LinuxTV is a Debian-based Linux distribution designed for computers connected to a television. Rather than booting into a conventional desktop environment, it starts with a fullscreen launcher intended to be viewed and controlled from across a room.

I also got KDE with Fedora on a beelink specifically to try big picture six months ago, but the homepage said it wasn't yet for general use, and you had to be a developer to use it. How did you install it?

It's in the repositories. sudo dnf install plasma-bigscreen

It's in Arch and Nix repositories as well I think.
