Just this past week I heard 2 such stories from a computer-challenged
individual.  She bought a newer smart TV because a service person told
her that her current model wouldn't get the streaming service she
wanted.   Then after her purchase of a newer TV she learned from a
different service person that it would.  But, she isn't unhappy because
she put the old one into a bedroom and she likes the newer model better
for her main TV.

She also bought a newer chromebook because her current working one
wouldn't update automatically any more.  She didn't discard the old one,
but I'm sure it will just get 'parked' somewhere unused.  Personally I
would put GalliumOS on it.

For your linux interest, both of the above TVs are Samsung, which uses
Tizen as its OS.  Tizen is linux based; and Samsung has been using Tizen
since 2015.
