I also use my pc as a TV with a big monitor. I can watch Netflix/streams through Firefox and control the pc with my PS5 controller connected through bluetooth.

You can do all of those things, but it's not remotely the same. The browser is limited to 720p, the interface isn't couch-friendly, and now your PC is connected to a TV instead of a proper gaming monitor.

That is all true. It just saves me money not buying a TV ๐Ÿ˜….

On windows you can just install the Netflix app or use Edge and it's not limited to 720p, and you can just use a long hdmi cable and have your pc plugged into a normal monitor as well.
