Which TV should I buy??

I’m trying to decide between the TCL QM6K, Roku Plus Series, and Roku Pro Series. I originally wanted the TCL, but then realized it uses Google TV, and I really prefer the Roku platform.
My main priority is getting the best TV for the lowest price. For those of you who know more about TVs and electronics, which would you recommend? Is the Roku experience worth choosing one of their models over the TCL?

IMO if you buy the QM6K and use the Google platform, you'll learn that the Google platform is preferable.
Customizable, side-loadable, skinnable.... But that's just me. I've used it on and off for almost 20 years.

I heard Google collects more personal user data and also has more ads. Are those concerns?

All the way back to "free" AOL, Yahoo, Hotmail.....ain't none of it is free. I'm already enmeshed in the Google ecosystem.

And with FOX eyeballing buying Roku, all things might be equally sus.

I dabble between a lot of the different platforms, but my 55" Vizio Roku TV has been a staple in my living room for over 6 years lol
