I stumbled upon this third party client a couple of months ago. Switchfin started out as a Homebrew client for the Nintendo Switch. It has since been ported to the PS4 (also Homebrew) and all three major PC OS’s. For Linux there is a flatpak, but not on flathub for some reason.

If you are looking for a client that works well with your living room PC, the upcoming Steam Machine or a gaming handheld, this might be worth a look.

used in on my PS4, was hoping I can make it a dedicated TV media player. had to give up, too slow, issues with playback, subtitles, UI, etc.
