Well what about a PC monitor? You can get u to like 43" and beyond. Obviously they are great for gaming as well.
The other very impractical mention - after TVs starting adding ads, cameras and microphones, I switched to a 2nd hand projector. Most have no smart features.
All you need is a white or off- white wall to protect on to. And the ability to block some light coming into the room.
Downsides:
They can be bulky and noisy. Particularly the 4k ones
might need separate speakers
Not as low latency as a tv but models do come with VRR
bulbs do get darker from prolonged use (and aren’t always cheap to replace)
you might need separate speakers
and there are the trailing cables
And you’ll never get the inky blacks of oleds. But for picture size and immersion for the cost, they are basically unbeatable.
Some can project from a coffee table.
For tv series and YouTube like content, I use a laptop. Then for big movies, I use the projector and 5.1 sound system (mostly 2nd hand as well.)
projectors are just not a practical recommendation for most people. unless you take pretty drastic measures to set up your room like a proper theater, the picture quality will be drastically worse than an average TV.

Indeed, that’s why I mentioned a PC monitor first
Just a heads up that the Smart virus is spreading to monitors, too. In a few years most monitors will be Smart.
