I went with an onn4k not logged into a google account because I got one that was patched to keep you from replacing the os with lineage but if you get the right version you can change it to lineage and put the apks for any services you want onto it
I like cloudstream personally and jellyfin is also pretty good
I used kde connect to load the apps onto it by downloading f-droid and loading apk files that way
I change distro because I get bored and it also gives me a chance to clean up loose files

Mint is my personal favorite tbh and I swapped back to it like 30 minutes before my pc decided to shit itself and stop working (not a common issue with mint no idea what caused it but it seems to be bios)
If you like mint stick to it unless you dont want to just make sure to back up all your files before you do and leave the files on the drive you backed up to for a couple of boot cycles no matter what
