Is there a way to de-google a smart TV? (feddit.org)

I have an older Sony TV which has (what I can only guess to be) Google's Android TV app installed on it. I'm sick of getting new recommendations from Amazon and Disney+ and all those services. Is there a way to strip it down bare bones and get everything I need from another app repo - kinda like with Graphene vs Android?

Sorry doesn't really answer the question, but is it feasible to buy a large computer monitor and use that rather than a TV if you're going to use a set top box or old PC anyway?

We have them at work in the meeting rooms. Unsure of price however?
